I'm sorry that he's giving you a hard time...You said it though, you need to breathe slowly and just put off some calm vibes...You gotta do it now or you'll both be sorry! Wear a nice thick long sleeve shirt and think tough!

I'm thinking on getting a pair of thick garden gloves.. maybe it'll help the scratching and cuts on my hands

Look how big these Monitor Lizards get...

I would be absolutely petrifired!!!! You are brave Rainbow!! Good luck with your new baby...it will be interesting watching it grow up!! I hope you keep us updated with new pics here!!

Thanks ! I'm not too nervous on his size, what I'm most nervous about is the taming part.. I heard theyre quiet easy to tame, but depending on the owner, you have to show whos boss, and ehh... I'm somewhat scared of him

OMG! :shock: That video is awesome!
Boy rainbow... you won't ever have to worry about your car breaking down :roll: You can ride that one to work :lol:
I definitely want to see pics of him growing up. Have you given him a name yet? Have you considered Godzilla?!

It'll be interesting watching him grow up =) .. his main task/job will be to stay uyp all night and keep me company and also to watch for intruders ! lol.

HeHe... I don't think you are going to have a problem with intruders... especially when they see the sign that reads:
Enter at your own risk! Man-eating Lizard on premises

I'm not sure, but I think your supposed to let them have like a month - 2 months time to adapt to their enviroment before you start yoking them out of the cage whenever you please. He said also the worst thing you can do is associate yourself to the monitor as a threat, otherwise you'll never be able to train him and he'll just be mean and fussy everytime he sees a human being. I was just watching these video's on youtube and this guy sounds like he knows what hes doing with monitors... hes got like 10 of em.

Have a looksee, I think its like a 5 part video segment.

Thanks ! =D ! I think i've seen one of his vid.. i'll keep watching! I think I need to just leave him alone, but if you see, all those ppl on youtube with tamed monitors have had theirs since they were babies... and mine is 8 month old .. which is really scary because I feel that the longer I take, the harder it will be. But i guess I need to be patient... just a bit scared of how mean he is. He's really mean and very viscious... makes me nervous

 

[Aznrainbowdime]

Oh and Im thinking of the name Archie.... ? yay or nay ?

 

[gulfbrzdawn]
