Re: Ever let your reptiles roam the house?

I let my big girls out (after my boys bed time) to roam the living room and stretch out a bit. I think its important for big snakes to keep good muscle mass and they cant generally do this in a cage all day. pluys its great fun to watch. I get alot of company lol its kinda funny when I good non-reptile friend walks in to that lmao!!
But if its time to breed they stay in their cage I think breeding is best if snimals are left alone as much as possible.

Re: Ever let your reptiles roam the house?

Chomper was roaming the house, and found Ace's food!

Ace barked like mad, but Chomp told Ace off and wiped out his kibbles.

Enjoy........


Notice - I understand that dog food is not monitor food, Chomper does NOT get fed dog food, he was stealing it from the dog, it was cute, so I took pics.








Now the food is gone, Chomp tried to eat the dish!

Re: Ever let your reptiles roam the house?

LOL Reminds me of my cat who has an obsession with my dog's kibble...even though it is far to big for her to manage. She will steal it from under their noses and because they "respect" the cat (more like afraid of claws) they just back away and whine waiting for her to be done. Usually I have to step in and make her leave them alone while they eat.

I wish they "respected" the other animals of our home...but both of my idiots would much rather just chomp down on them. Thus another reason why I would never allow my animals to just roam free without my supervision and such.

Re: Ever let your reptiles roam the house?

Does chomper whip with his tail?
I found a method that works for water monitors and I'm waiting for an opportunity to test it on savs. You put a reptile safe light adhesive on your glove/sleeve(mild adhesive, nowhere close to strong enough to grab the tail) the monitor whips you and sticks just a little, max times I have seen is 5, they really don't like the feeling of hitting something sticky.
Luckily I've never met a monitor that bites.

In all the years we have had Chomp, the only times he ever tail whipped, was provoked, he had a good reason to.

Re: Ever let your reptiles roam the house?

I can't really say what is "normal" of the species, My one and only Monitor has always been Chomper.

When I think about it.. we really didn't handle or bother him much when he was little. I was very content to just observe.
