he looks awesome. how is he responding to the "taming process"?

I'm waiting for hatchlings to become available. Can't decide on a BTM or a Rhino Iguana.

He has taken quite well actually. The only thing he needs is a little more handling work, and a little longer for him to recognize me as something that isn't harmful. He is really good once picked up he setles down almost instantly! but it's the picking him up part that he getts the hissing and tail whipping going on that needs work. Also any fast movements he whips.
But everything else is awsome, couldn't of asked for a better monitor!


I say you get one, they are awsome. I love rhino iguanas as much as the next herp freak, but can't go wronge with a nice "tame" BT, in my opinion anyway.


Also I don't think you will ever find a hatchling BT! Considering most if not all BT are still wild caught. Unless you make contact with someone whilling to go out and try to find and deal with the parents of hatchling BT's. I would just hit some guy up on kingsnake, or the guy I refered you to. As far as I know he has the smallest ones available right now!
