can anyone tell me what kind of monitor is white with black stripes across it's back. There was a guy selling one at the Daytona reptile breeders expo. This animal needs a CITIES permit. Any help would be greatly appreciated

If so then maybe your talking about the little griseus that was at the show? I can't recall off hand who had it though but I do remember seeing one.

sgraff Aug 22, 2007 08:43 PM

yes it was small I'm not sure how big it gets, but I don't think it was an adult.

The griseus was a baby in a plexi glass display (top left), its about the best monitor I could think of that fits your description that i saw.

I didn't see the griseus.
I did see gilleni, tristis, pilbaras, sulfurs, lacies, blackthroats, green trees, black trees, ackies,crocs, savs, waters, and dums....... none of those seem to fit your description though...

sgraff Aug 23, 2007 07:17 PM

Yes that's the one! Do they get whiter with age, and do the bands get darker?

I saw one for sale on kingsnake that had very nice contrast very black and white looked like a zebra type monitor. I never saw the one at the show, but a friend of mine did and I thought it might be the same animal. That looks like it's it the one I saw had a little more contrast. You need a CITIES permit for those?

sgraff Aug 23, 2007 07:40 PM

never mind the picture it was an accident

jock Aug 23, 2007 07:45 PM
