Nice!

Nile monitors are such beautiful lizards. It is a shame they have such intractable dispositions.

Luke

It is ashame for a number of reasons, but I think it is also not ashame for a number of reasons, if that makes any sense. An example of each would be that the price of them is so low so they are commonly bought and can't be cared for eventually because of their size (and their dispositions, usually) so they are killed or mistreated and eventually dead. Why it is not ashame is because it makes them such strong, respected animals. I would never want to 'tame down' my nile, I have savs for that lol, it is the personality of the Nile and I wouldn't want to break that; just observe it and watch him grow.

Wow, that's a very pretty nile! The timor is cute too, but I really like the pattern on your nile.

They both look nice and healthy.
How's the timor's temperment?

Nice job!
Keep up the good work

Roger

Timor is timid! As I expected in purchasing him. Doesn't like being handled, but loves to be watched, and I love to watch him so it works out OK for the both of us. Roger, any insight into the sex of my nile yet or still too young to tell from general appearance?

Thanks,
Dan

I forgot to add I close off as much as possible at the top to hold the humidity in.
