New member... hello
so i found this site, and thought i could always use some tips, and help... as well as meet some other herp fanatics. names josh, i currently have a 5-6 month old frilled lizard, and my newest baby is what i believe to be a 4-5 month ornate water monitor.
i mainly joined because i would love to get some insight on some tips on my monitor, the frillie is pretty calm (although loves to be a little *** everynow and then) the monitor does great when picked up, shes a little flighty for the first few seconds, but calms right down with me. my main concern with her is anytime i walk by her cage she seems so scared and will bury herself, or duck under and into her water section. anyone got some ideas on how i could help ease her with not being so shakey when someomne walks by?
other then that good to be here, hope to talk to a few of ya.

Re: New member... hello
please post about your monitor in our Varanids section.
It will be seen by a lot more Varanus keepers there.

Re: New member... hello
Welcome. How do you have your monitor set up? By the way, you shouldn't pick your monitor up. If you want a handleable animal, research a bit on the tong feeding method.
