yo yo yo!! wuttup ya'll? hey I've had my ornate monitor since october got it from regal reptile as a hatchling. now its about 20 inches. he/she is amazing. take the colors of a nile but with temperment of a savannah. im feeding it canned crickets one week then ground turkey then back to canned crickets. twice a week it will get a couple commets. truly amazing. it does bluff hiss and whipe when you try to take it out, but after that its ur best friend!
