Strange, the whole message/s you`ve posted could have been written by FR, that being the case, I would take it very seriously), but I just think you`re trying to sound like him (hmmmmmm)??
I have worked with this species in a large zoo for several years, so I do have personal experience with them. Can I ask how long you`ve kept this and other varanid species, and what you`ve achieved with them?
The question of what type of thermometer/hygrometer is used to measure temps etc is extremely important, because if analogue, they can be very innacurate, in which case, maybe the "real" basking temp is more like 100f, which is way too low (you already mentioned they need to come up significasntly), and I completely agree, which obviously might explain the animal`s behaviour, at least in part!
