your husbandry is very common for new monitor keepers, or folks that keep snakes.



it will take a few days of good solid basking temps to get your animals back on track, digestively and otherwise.



they will burrow in a good soil. cypress would be a second choice. and like many Indo species, a good soil base with leaf litter cover may get you the best results of all.



these are not an outgoing species. they are skittish, shy, and not looking to be handled.



best of luck.
