Tree Monitor Photo Shoot

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very nice tree monitor collection. How many blacks do you have? How have they been for you so far? Curious as to your enclosure, temps, diet info, etc. I have a female becc that I'd love to get a male for in the near future, breeding them has been a goal of mine for a while now. Any advice?
 
Beautiful!!!!

Get her fat and keep her hot ha ha ha ha, she will become a pez dispenser. My enclosures are 6 tall 3 wide and 4 long. I keep them humid around 70 % 8 months of the year and then ease up for a dry simulation. Basking is at 130 with the cool end in the 70's I also keep a strip light for viewing and observing. Right now I have 2.2
 
what do you use for heating? I have some trouble keeping the enclosure temp up there. Mine is screen/laminate and I use heat cable on the interior. I was considering radiant heat panels or perhaps just a higher wattage heat emitter. I actually used to let her spend a fair amount of time outside this summer in an all screen cage and she seemed to really enjoy the sunlight.
 
I use incandecent Sp? lights they are gentle on the skin and get the job done. I dont keep my trees outside and I live in tropical S. FL, too many things can go wrong.
