Thanks for the responses.

The habitat shots are great thank you.

I've been keeping and breeding reptiles for over 20 years, mostly varanids and I own a naturalistic fabrication company that designs and builds zoo exhibits all over the country.

I respectfully disagree with your husbandry protocols and my experiences have been quite the opposite of yours.

I'll be providing a fairly small exhibit size equivalent to a 4x2x4tall. Deep natural substrate (dirt sand mix) and will provide a large thermal and humidity gradient.I'll probably get a female to go with the male and let them go year round. Hopefully they will burrow and I'll only see them when they cruise.

Thanks again.
