Blue Tree Monitors

[brooklynboy521]

I am looking into getting a pair of Blue Tree Monitors for breeding, I am still doing research but does a 4x3x4 sound bug enough for a pair? Or should I go larger?

I MAY be mixing my monitors but when we looked at them i am sure we were thinking of at least a 6ft high viv 4ft wide and 3ft deep - they (from memory) need LOTS of climbing/exercise space.

(Apologies if i have the wrong species of monitor :) )

They are a fantastic species of monitor which are notoriously kept in inadequate conditions... http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d97/Sabotag3sl/greentreeviv3.jpg Is a pretty nice one, make sure the enclosure can handle the humidity and temps!

You may want to leave it looking less open though, they are an inteilligent species who doesn't like getting watched. A friend of mine has a pair and he set up cameras inside the enclosure so he can watch them do things like eat (they are pretty secretive eaters) without bothering them.
