Savannahs- I now have two

cavyscandy Jan 21, 2004 10:25 AM

I have received my second rescued Savannah, she is younger, and much better off than Smog was when we got him. My question is can 2 Savannah live together with enough room? They are separated now of course, but we had just started building smog a cage for when he is adult size, we are using a full octo- bay window area in my living room. it will be about 12' long, and 5' wide, we have not settled on height yet, we have option to the ceiling, but i didn't feel he needed that much height, so that is still in the decision area. I want to know can 2 Savannah's live together at all, and if so how much area would they need. They are both pretty young still, and I thought that if they can be together, to do so in an enclosure that is new to both may lessen the territorial issue some. Thank you

Savanna Monitor, Gecko(?), Iguana, 3 snakes (Gray Banded King, Amazon Tree Boa, Ribbon) Rabbit, Fereet, 5 mice, 5 fish, 2 parakeets, 6 turtles (4 water ?, 2 box) 3 Dogs, 2 cats. And I am sure the next hurt or abandonded (ect.) animal any one we know finds will soon live here too! Plus me, Hubby, our 3 kids, and 4 sisters that are not ours by blood. One BIG happy family

i dont know if they can or cnat,but 1 idea if height isnt an issue why not biuld one on top of the other,that way if they can live together then kool but if not the doubly kool because you have the "spare" right above the first "room"
Just a thought

Thank you that is a good idea, We just got the new one Tuesday, and had not thought about that. Now the thought being, can I come up with a good way to make the two open together, if the could be together, for supervised time and separated when no one is home, I will have to thing about that. Now if someone who has ever had two together, or if there is anyone who has read info about keeping two together, I would really appreciate the info.

introduce 1 into the others cage but that could bring up territory issues,another thing youcould try is introduction on nutral territory IE:your bed or in the bathroom.Other than this i cant really comment further because ive never had to introduce a strange monitor to another
