FR told me to consider another species in response to the limited availability of Varanus griseus, which was logical, since i have to wait like a year anyways, and i need to catch up on what the industry is doing. now I'm told my choice of niles is not good enough. GUYS SHOULD I JUST GIVE UP MONITORS. GO BACK TO LEOPARD GECKOS WHICH IM NOT ATTRACTED TO? OR IGUANAS!! I would rather eat cockroaches than Kale!!! bleh!



Tonight me and my housemate were discussing cooking insects for food since im going to be breeding them anyways. We're all super psyched to try the land shrimp! gross! but im willing to do it for science!





I have the space. I have the money to afford $150 per month feeding, easily. I have the ability to deal with the fact that they want to eat my face at all times.



I just fell in love with monitors, they rock. i want to do it right, so help me. I mean its not the money. I know they cost alot each month.



i dont have any reptiles right now BECAUSE I dont take on responsibilities unless I can take care of them.



I want a monitor local to the middle east. that is really important to me.



Because I am pretty sure the Mushushu was based on the monitor lizard. This is like a [bleep]ing religious thing to me. I would always put them first, like, they are my kids.







i think the whole thing about "their enviroment destroys houses" is just an engineering issue. I have friends who are engineers. It isn't such a big deal. we'll figure it out. Washington State itself, as an enviroment destroys houses. I can build the enclosure outside if need be. To me that would be weird because the monitors should be inside the house, spreading their ferocious energy to the humans.
