Hi mate, hows it going?
21 monitors and growing doesnt leave much online time lol.

No problems at all. Very civilised at all times. No food aggression, squabbles, anything. Will be moving them into there own prpose built shed soon as they are growing fast and the aim is to get some UK CBB eventually.

Re: V. Dumerlii feeding pics

You know, looking at these pics again, I could swear I saw a thread about this earlier on a different forum. Someone in england getting a bunch of captive bred hatchlings with cute little orange heads, and I remember that spongey design on the enclosure walls. Am I remembering correctly?

And they were all siblings right?

Re: V. Dumerlii feeding pics

Very very nice. I can imagine that going from holland to germany to the UK and being captive bred, you paid quite the price for them haha Sweet enclosure, is the pond on the right using a filtration system or do you just remove it? I know the dumies make quick work of clean water haha. Are the 3 green walls, actual house walls ?

Worth every penny though. No filtration system in this one just many water changes. Clean water lasts about 20mins max lol.
All my enclosures are in purpose built insulated sheds like this:



Inside main shed:



NB; these pics are a bit old. Vivs have been adapted to take deep substrate since.

Re: V. Dumerlii feeding pics

they are selling one at my local pet store for $600 CAD. But I'd never buy that one.. it's been there for half a year and it hasn't grown it's still 4-5 inches and never moves. I think it's gonna die.
