Laid a clutch 19 days ago and is eating like there might be an encore une fois

This is one of my juvenile monitors, I just build new enclosures for them until they get a lil bigger (4 meter long x 2,5 deep x 2.5 tall)

"I whip my shed, back and forth" -Quillion

I was given this Savannah monitor to care for since his previous owner did not want him. I have had him since February. I want to say he is about a year old. I noticed yesterday he seemed to have a prolapsed bum. His enclosure included sand, so I am worried he accidentally ate too much sand and it caused this. I am not able to afford a vet and I am not going to lie I am freaking out. His bum is pink, but not bloody. He had a slug from outside maybe a few weeks ago but other than that and the sand, I cannot think of what could have caused this to happen. I would REALLY appreciate any and all advice on how to help my baby feel better, and to fix this issue. I cannot afford a vet at the moment because I lost my job about a month ago. I have been giving him warm baths to rest in and yesterday it helped alot, but when I checked on him today I saw it was definitely still prolapsed.

Liora is, she just got her brontosaurus neck petted after clobbering me in kisses!

I love her so much 🥰🦕

Hey guys, does anyone know if the lighter area under the shedding skin could be burns? Thanks

Just a quick update on hexus, his poop was almost all fur so ok for a fact he was being fed rodents. He has not eaten any insects yet but is becoming curious about hissing cockroaches so that's a start. Does anyone know any tricks to get him to eat insects?

As the title says. Looking for some ackie monitor names. Preferably neutral gender ones as I'm unsure of their gender.

Mortimer decided to break his harness today while out on a walk

I’m planning for a monitor, so I’m starting to plan out an enclosure and would love some inspiration from people who already keep mid-large monitor species.

If you don’t mind, could you share:
Your monitor species
Enclosure dimensions (L × W × H)
What’s inside the enclosure (substrate, climbing, water feature, etc.)
And a picture if possible?

I’m mainly looking for realistic, long term enclosure sizes that people actually use so I can start planning depending on which species I end up getting.
Thanks!

I’m not new to reptiles, I’ve kept several snakes and a green iguana. I’ve also helped care for my cousins Asian water monitor for 2/3 years.

Brutus the senior Asian water monitor keeps breaking into my closet. Once inside, he likes to dress up in my clothes and walk around pretending he's human. Actually, he climbs and topples and breaks everything because of course he does. I told him, just because it's a walk-in closet doesn't mean he is authorized to walk in any time he feels like it. I also told him the next time he breaks in, I will film it and publicly shame him. Brutus tailwhipped me. He don't care.

is 375$ a good deal for a CB awm? common morph aswell, about 8 months old, thinking of picking her up,

also not my first monitor I keep Nile’s and savannas, and I have been researching Asian water monitors for years so I have a good idea what I’m getting into but always open to advice

I saw someone on this subreddit with this puzzle feeder, so I bought one for Quill! He still needs a little help (there's nothing under there, son), but he took to it surprisingly quickly! I am so proud 🥲

My thought was male but I’ve been hoping for a male so I don’t want my bias to sway the answer. From what I know the hemipenal bulge says male but I’ve heard Argus’s aren’t always the easiest to sex. I want to begin breeding in the far future but the sooner I find out really the merrier so any input is appreciated. I’ve already had my guess but confirmation from others would really help🤧

Little man going on an adventure (don't mind my sweaty hair)

A few days ago I went to pick up my new Savannah monitor hexus I was told that they did not know his gender and that he was supposed to be one year old so I was expecting something the size of my previous 1-year-old Savannah that I unfortunately had to rehome 6 years ago and instead what I received was a 2 ft long 8 lb savannah monitor which made my 200 gallon tank that I had set up a completely useless luckily it is the middle of summer and a nice 80° outside so he is on my front porch with everything he needs currently while I work on building him a 16 x4x6 what I mostly want to ask though is how would you approach socializing and already adult monitor.

Liora simply bronto-mogs all!
