Wait

“Its horrible torture for a gravid monitor to not have a nest it understands”

Are you saying that keeping them together~ while it may be good for Rico~ and right now looks like a good thing for Goblyn maybe a bad thing for her? I understand she may not lay fertile eggs~ or if she lays eggs I’ll probably mess them up~ but are you saying just keeping her with Rico and allowing them to entertain each other will be horrible for her?

I certainly don’t want to torture her anymore than I’ve wanted to torture him.

I was/am planning to build an outdoor enclosure this month. Nothing fancy and nice like our indoor enclosure~ but somewhere where he could stay in the later summer months when I thought she might be getting ready to lay eggs~ and where both of them could be during cage cleaning times when I like to run the sprinkler on them (not a permanent all year enclosure due to heat concerns~ and because we really like observing them in the enclosure in the living room).

Do you think I would be best to move her into the outdoor enclosure with several nesting options once I have it built?
