DONT buy a reptile because its small and cute.. know your stuff before you get them! AND have there cage ready before they are brought home. this is sad to see and you pretty much have nothing right, because of you it gives reptile owners a bad name
I had a baby Savannah monitor, but he died after a week or so of owning him.He was already doing bad when we bought him, he got better for a while then he just died.
Ok mine won't eat and it's still alive, wtf do I make it do so It can eat a cricket. It hasn't ate since I put it in my house. It was running an healthy at the breeders place. maybe it just don't like me or the enclosure. It must last at least a week and a half or so before I can consider purchasing it something new. It plays, sticks his tongue out, can be handled, sleeps, hides, drinks but doesn't eat at all. Been a couple days almost a week on monday. What do I do...
do savs need a high tank or a reasonably high tank because I'll be building a custom one in a few months and i want to know if they like to climb branches and stuff (the cage wil be 2 meters long and 1 meter wide). So yeah, can anyone give me a rough idea of how high it should be?
Alright kid your hole tank is crap. It's way too small, you weren't holding him right. You shouldn't have sand bedding because in some cases they eat the sand and it kills them. Also he only needs one cave the log makes no sense. Stop trying to say you know about what your talking about because you don't
@willmockingbird first of all, having more then one hide is a good thing, and the log can be used to climb on for enrichment, that tank is a bit small for the baby but its a baby and can do well in that set up, its coco fibre not sand. sand only kills if there is no where that he can soak which is provided please stop posting coments when you think you know what your talking about? try researching facts before posting idiotic comments.
@Fallout3dude27 lol its small its growing. he can build the cage into it. but i personally dont give him a cage i let him run around but i keep the safety up tho so nothing to worry bout. and i gave him a 6x6 pool in one of the rooms with warmed water.
and you shouldnt be feeding him dog food at that age you retard its very fatening and has no nuetrition at all same with meal worms you should be feeding him crickets, and roaches untill hes old enough for raw meats and mice
@Colorfultoothbrushes your feeding him pre-killed mice, basicly ur taking a dead frozen mouse, warming it up for 20 min in hot water then feeding it to ur monitor, show her some videos, hell theirs nothing discusting, its gone in like 3 minutes
By uv you mean UVB? If so you should be having it on during the day or your reptiles won't have a photoperiod "night and day" use the UVB and basking during the day and a ceramic heat emitter during the night
He will not stay that small for long, being that young he will spend a lot of time hiding as they do in the wild from predators, then as they get older they get bolder get ready for him to take over your bed room!
@lizardboy94 at babby's there not ment to be in glass for one, 2 they need a hell alot of room for the tempratures they need a big gradient for warm side cool side.. and it makes them more comfertable i used to have a sav but i sold it when i moved to england.
4x4x2. The depth of the enclosure will get larger with the more monitors in the tank. a 55 for a baby, 100+ for sub adults and adults. Fully grown adults a custom made vivarium for very expensive vision cage.
@lizardboy94 no for a baby sav you will need atleast a 55 gallon is what they meant you idiot and btw a fully frown sav will need a cage thats 6x6x4 smart ass
do not feed small monitors any live rodents or pre killed rodent for about a year. There digestive systems are not made to handle large quantity's of fat and fur. feed a fully grown sav. 2 small rodents a week max! They love eggs, ground chicken and turkey, lots of insects(especially roaches), and crickets. They can also eat other reptiles but it is not recommended.
i'd be interested, i live in nebraska, of the us. i have a cage that would fit him and i breed rats and mice, and have other reptiles. i'd be more than able to take care of him =)
i actually got some vids up of mine. if you want to you can check him out. just go to my page or whatever. if you do decide to go check out some of my videos. then i thank you cuz ive only had them up for like three days and no one has commented yet. well nice monitor.
i just got mine two days ago and it wont eat crickets at all, did yourse respond to food instantly or did it take him a while. and with the water, is yourse drinking cuz mine drank a little bit but he stoped. and to let you know mine is the same age as yourse, so i was a little worried with him being so small. and anyone reading this can respond to, thanks
Yes, a bigger cage is a good idea. I have my Spike in a 180 gallon acrylic aquarium with undertank heater and multiple lamps with UVB. He is 24 inches. I might give him one of my closets later on.
why do you turn on uv light at night. you need to have the uv light on during the day and off at night so they can sleep. i have turtles, 1 foot long tortoise, bearded dragon, kingsnake, fishies, and i recently caught a frog but forgot about him and he shriveled uped and died. i take good care of them, but i totally forgot about the dang frog for some reason. btw, i want to get one
yes he dose, he keeps a lot of reptiles. pluss he is not like you were you just get something coz you whant it, and you dont research it. he is verry knowlageable you fuck
yes they do eat veggies in the wild thay eat ever thay can find get it on veggie y you still have a chance man it will be a shit load easyer to feed it in the long run!!! trust me and if you dont do sum reading on them
ay wasup i just got a savannah monitor 2day hes the same size but his very active.. lets uplod vid and see whos gets bigger...but yea..this will be awsome.ill make a vid as soon as i get his viv and everything set up..right now ima serch care sheets..since i just got back from the expo [[ps i got a savannah monitor $18 and a sand fire beardie $75]]
SamTheSnakeMan1, this comment is for you. Savannah Monitors like Dog food its very common to feed them god food, check any caresheet and it will tell you the same
hey anyone can reply this is importent cuz i want one. can a BABY that size live in a ten gallon while i save up for a biger tank?
