5. Tegu monitor (would never have the room, even though we have a HUGE home, just no place in it suitable for a large enough enclosure..)

No disrespect intended, but Tegus aren't monitors :]

Haha yeah I'd put that on my list, but I figured the others were potentially feasible one day. This one, not so much.

Perhaps they meant the monitor tegu or Callopistes flavipunctatus.
As for the spectacle caiman, as long as you have the room they're feasible.

if you really wanted, we could arrange shipping during the warmer months, I'd give you a good deal. I won't be breeding for them for probably 2 more years, and of course I get the first one!!!

Yea, too bad. The more I see geckos, the more I love the little guys. They're entirely too cute for their own good.

Planted vivs can be thrown together in an afternoon, and you can get lots of cheap species that make great vivarium inhabitants. You could grab a few mourning geckos, and hatch the eggs in-situ (you will get eggs no matter what). And they feed all together like an african watering hole during the drought season haha.
|
Lol, that's interesting about them feeding together. I didn't know they did that! I'm kinda done on acquisitions for awhile. I'm really bent on acquiring #1 on my list and that will take some fund saving being a full time student and all. I've got the Indigo bug bad

Definitely. I have compiled a list of substitute options that I'm working on. My realistic list looks like this.
1. Woma python
2. Aussie olive(male)
3. Platinum retic w/ sd blood
4. Borneo short tail
5. Blue tongue skink
It's not a perfect match for everything but it will have to due. I still hope that one day I can afford a black head, or that the price comes down.

My plans for the near future are either a dwarf retic or a smaller species of monitor, just to dip my toes in!
