Mangrove monitor update

[Reps4life]

OK thanks to alot of help from gbassett my mangrove monitor is doing really good. I have seen him out everytime i go to his cage. He is basking and took some ground turkey I put in there last night. So he finally isnt scared to move around the cage. Ive only handled him once. I dont want him to see me as a predator but more like a food provider. I still need to up the bask temp a little bit but other than that its doing great!


Here is the empty bowl the turkey was in last night.

Corrugated tubing of the appropriate width could work as well.
