Adopted new monitor....

[SimonL]

Just picked up a somewhat malformed blackthroat from my LRS...for free (and I promised not to freeze it lol). Apparently it was dropped of by a customer... Looks like super MBD to me...it'll probably not live too long, but I figure it still deserves a good home!

I dub thee the Camel Monitor

Nice pickup. Is it eating?

 

[SimonL]

I haven't tried feeding yet, but the guys at the LRS fed it yesterday. Plus it produced a giant pile of s**t, reminding me of why I got rid of my previous large lizards lol.

[SimonL]

Awesome.. great monitor!

You guys did notice it's horribly deformed right? But thanks anyways, at least it's friendly...

 

[cichlaguapote]

lol Yeah I saw but still can make a good pet..lol

Maybe he's just been lifting some weights... lol

 

[Vicious_Fish]

Nice monitor, how big is he?

 

[SimonL]

About 24 inches.

Maybe he's just been lifting some weights... lol

Uh oh...maybe I should put bigger rocks on top of the lid...

Umm he looks great but the deformity looks nasty just give him a good home.

And now comes the building of a huge cage lol Maybe I'll get lucky and it won't grow as big as a normal V. albigularis lol
