Well some of you might remember the thread i started a few weeks ago about the tegu hybrids i was getting. well after waiting three weeks after i made my payment and the shipping issue still not complete, i decided to get my money refunded.

with that being said i am now on the hunt for my next reptile purchase. im looking for something that gets a decent size. im not exactly sure what to get though. i have a few ideas i am thinking about. one of them being a rhino iguana:D. i have been talking to David Blair about his captive bred rhinos and other iguana hybrids. and im getting sucked right in.

im just not sure what else to consider. i want something that will tame down.. i already have a large green iguana so another one of those is out of the question.

lets hear some suggestions

Thanks

Look no furter;) A giant indonesian sailfin dragon Hydrosaurus amboinensis or a philiphine sailfin dragon Hydrosaurus pustulatus will fit the bill
 
I love the rhino igs if it were me I would get them or maybe a red tegu they are really awesome.

How big,do you like monitors or no?The large rihnos I was around were very aggressive once adult males.They are awesome though.Are beadeds legal in your area?I like monitors better than iggys because they are on the move more.You already got a chill iggy,try something diferent.How big you lookin for?,,,,
 
im trying to keep it around 5 feet or so. and whatever i get i would like it to be able to free roam.
which is one reason i was looking at the rhino iguanas. from what i have read they tend to calm down and become pretty docile if handled and socialized when young. right now i am talking to David Blair and Tom Crutchfeild about them and i like what i hear. and another plus is with them they have the same diet as my current iguana.

As far as monitors. i dont mind them. ive always wanted one. i dont really know alot about them. they just tend to be real unpredictable from what i have read. which is not a bad thing, but my little brother (hes 13) loves my reptiles and tends to help me alot. so i would like something that he can be around as well.
 
Get a Sav or a locale specific Water monitor they get around 4+ft for the Sav and 5+ft for the water monitor and are pretty docile if they get handled frequently
