I want to thank you all for your help in either responses to me and/or others. I do have the book on Savannah monitors by Bennett as well as one by Bayless.
Im a new monitor owner having my 16 inch Savannah only 2 weeks.
When we got him he was temporarily in a 20 gallon long set up, but 5 days ago he was moved to a 90 gallon set up that 48 inches long.
Temperatures are all still correct, but suddenly the scared monitor who hunched down and closed his eyes when we replaced water, scooped waste ect has changed personalitities to this whipping biting monster who will even charge from the opposite side of the cage.
My question is if I continue with my routine and cleaning his enclosure, ect and respecting him will he likely calm down in time to tolerate me, is this normal when in new settings?
Im curious cause my wrists, covered in whip marks are sore and my coworkers are going to start wondering about my home life... (jk)
