What a goof, you think so much of yourself, because you have to justify why you keep a Sav. And why you have not done anything with it.



Its very simple, all normal monitors, kept in halfway decent conditions, lay eggs, that is NORMAL to them. Anything less then normal stops them from laying eggs. That is WILD captive, normal monitors.



Until you have reachced what normal is for the monitors, you have done nothing.



Your all proud of yourself because you want to think your special because you have kept your monitor for nearly a year and its not dead.



if you what to talk about your, less then a year, I had a female ackie for 16 years, a male lacie for 18, and female cross for 14 that laid over 80 clutches.



So you think anyone could not learn more with that experience, then your less then one year????????



Or I have bred Whitethroats for many generations, another african monitor thats bred much less then Savs.



Also its not about breeding them, its all about the steps it took to start them out, keep them going, have them successfully recuperate for the stresses of laying large clutch after large clutch.



You see, there are demands on a diet that are greater then what your limited time has required.



Which means, your very very naive.



There have been hundreds of SAV keepers just like you, and pround and smart, only to have their wonderful Savs fall over dead. Sir, that is the sad part. But your too friggin egotistical to even think your just a beginer. With less then a year under your belt. Good on you.



Its sad your too afraid to even post pics of your animal, so we can actually tell if there even is a Sav in your care.
