Leucistic Nile Monitor
Unfortunatly regulated by the same laws as normal Nile Monitors.

They look amazing. I'm not crazy about albino monitors but the leucistic one looks awesome.

Let me guess NERD has it for sale?
Monitor pricing is so funny to me. Considering the fact a handful of people captive breed niloticus there is no reason to warrant the price tag. The same was said for the 8k price tag on the 3 male melanistic niles that BHB bought.

Saw it on a friends Facebook page.
I plan to pay 200$ aprox for my again water monitor when I get it, unless I choose to get a sulfur, but I'm leaning more towards natural colors.

I don't understand the sulfur colors, they really look honestly worse in my opinion than the natural coloration. Goes to show people are willing to pay more for the "unique" factor of an animal.
I got my water for $180, as an adult though, we see babies around here for around $100 so hopefully you'll get lucky on a hatchling for cheap.

There are no breeders that I know of in canada, so prices tend to be higher. There are a few sellers here and there but they are the worst looking water monitors ever. (a few look decent)

I see babies for $25 or less all the time... Normal Niles of course.

I'm looking for an Asian water monitor. I love niles but when my family hears the word "nile" they pee themselves :P I fed a few crocs in a face to face situation on one of our vacation and they flipped out, I was more or less perfectly safe.

Last week there was an $18,000 price tag on an albino water monitor. It was also one of NERD's =P

I'm not crazy about albino in 4 legged reptiles, love them leucistic though.
