the coolest minute I ever filmed

[infernalis]

People keep asking me if my monitors interact,

Watch Littlefoot's left hand close, just before Cera takes off.

I don't want to read too much into anything, but he definitely laid his head on her and stroked her back with his hand.

I filmed a bunch of them running around, but that clip is the best part.

[Gungirl]

That was awesome!

Oh hunny.. could you please move aside and let me soak up some rays in the peace and quiet

Bahahahaha

[alessia55]

awww so cute! :D I think he's got a crush on her!!! :p

[lady_bug87]

My lacertas interact like that all the time it's so cool to see. Sometimes momma will cuddle against my male or lick food off his chin or she sits on top of him. They also sleep cuddled together in the same hide. He gives her 'love bites' and sometimes she kicks him off of where he's sitting. If I remove her from the enclosure he goes frantic and will refuse food will get very aggressive until we put her back then he inspects her and then he's back to normal

This clip is incredible, Wayne. Young Love.

[jarich]

That is really cool Wayne. Its pretty hard not to see social interaction in those movements. Awesome.

[Savvy1]

Yeah thats pretty cool!

[infernalis]

I don't think I will ever keep a solo monitor again after this.

[varanus_mad]

Awesome matey thats the first example ive seen of a proper social intereaction between boscs not just laying next or on top of each other.

[infernalis]

Cheers...

I just shot about 12GB of stuff, I have to pluck out any interesting bits and delete the rest.

[jaleely]

SO cute. Ah, and they are so small! But boy that was cute

[kernel]

Wayne, cool behavior you caught on tape. It is the start of one asserting dominance over the other. Something you see often when housing varanids together especially when they are both seeking the same optimal basking spot.

Is it "social interaction"? Depends on what you consider social interaction. I do not consider displays of dominance as a social behavior.Thats just my opinion. Not a possitive one anyway. What you see in the vid is no show of love or affection, that is for sure. Looks cute but has a much different meaning that what it looks like.

I'm no reptile psychologist. :)

watch as one tries to show off to the other.

If nothing else, they keep each other occupied.

[Bradyloach]
