SHvar,

I bought my group of Ackies over 14 years ago when they were very uncommon. My original group of Pilbara were purchased 8 years ago. The Ackies came from a good friend of mine and there weren't enough animals back then to sort.

They represent my experience very well. In addition, I've had the same experience with other lizards, such as Cyclura, that I've owned and bred.

With all due respect, I'm not buying that fact that monitors can change sex after birth based upon groupings. Please show me a picture of a male that became a female after being placed with a male or group of males. Until then, this is wishful thinking in my opinion. Sorry FR, I'm not with you on this one.
