  • when the cameras not on his pants are off.

  • @CREAMYFILMS that's a frightening thought!! :)

  • @RoyalHamsters I've had reptiles for about 7 years, even keeping the most vicious of snakes, and even i steeped into the monitor game way to quick, taming my monitor is one of the hardest things ive ever done. I wosh i bought her as a baby and not one and bit feet long but shes still a baby now and could still maul my hand of any time of the day.

  • @zacsid they take time, but most will tame down as we say!! well maybe not dog tame lol!

  • this is how i trained mine :) very tame now he dosent snap at food no more

  • @REDPIRUPIT good to hear! & good luck in the future. :)

  • wow.. pretty looking monitor. they are so cool, too bad they get so huge. I would love one.

  • @RoyalHamsters not to be too harsh but you should be able to tame a docile gecko or bearded dragon before you even begin to think about a monitor lizard as they are much more maintence and cost, also if small animals have the tendency to bite you why on earth would you want to purchase a lizard that could easily rip your fingers off, just my 2 cents though

  • lol

    i dnt want a monitor

    im talkin bout a bearded dragon or sumtin in that size

    lol

    and i dnt own a hamster

  • @RoyalHamsters you want to own a rodent and a monitor as pets? does that not strike you as a bad idea?

  • When I try to pick him up, he waves his tail back and forth as if he wants to bite me! Should I start off with larger animals? I actually wanted a bearded dragon, due to their calmness. I own a very calm ferret at the moment and two turtles, and the gecko still. What should I do? I've tried multiple times with small animals.

  • Hi, I am 12 years old, I've owned multiple pets. I don't think starting with small lizards are my thing. I own a fat tailed gecko, and i've owned a hamster. From my experience ive noticed that the smaller animals tend to bite me. For example: I went to the pet store and i held a bearded dragon, and the Bearded dragon was a juvenile, that tended to be very calm in my arms, but when i hold my fat tailed gecko, he constantly tries to jump out of my hands.
