An argus is not a monitor for a newbie. I am not too sure it is a lizard for someone with experience. hahaha
A healthy male can reach 5 foot.
They are always hungry. I feed my juvie 3 to 4 hopers a day along with a dozen dusted roaches and it acts like it wants more.
My cage is currently 3X7X4 and will soon be moved to a 4X8X4.
You can't let an argus just run free through the house. It will tear up and knock over everything. They are very active, highstrung seems like an understatement and strong.
They are not what I would call calm and laid back.
Read the stories Luke wrote about his.
