watch this guys you tube vids, i think him method of taming monitors is the best way to do it.
hope this helps. Time is your friends when it comes to monitors. they can be nice and calm but as wayne has said in past posts, that sav hes got does have temper tantrums and throws a fit. from what i know of other people when they are nice and calm and tamed good they act like little puppies but dont count on this. I had a nile monitor last year about 4 1/2 feet, i was feeding him and he was calm and eating right infront of me, well as soon as the last bite was eatten he whiped his tail back and got me twice across my arm so hard the sharp edge of his tail slit my skin and left 2, 8" welps down my arm, and it was lighting fast and out of no wear. just somthing to keep in mind when dealing with monitors. Never trust them, you must always respect them but you can also have a lot of good times and enjoyment with them if you maintain proper husbandy
