    Wanting to read a Savannah monitor caresheet with ACCURATE info...

    I've been searching the web for an accurate caresheet for the Savannah monitor and I know that most of the ones I've come across have a lot of bad info, like feeding an all rodent diet, enclosure size etc.. And I just don't trust them. Does anyone know enough about healthy Savannah care that can give me a proper caresheet? Thank you

    Most care sheets are Biased and are written upon the opinion of the author of said care sheet.

    You will have to take them and tweak it to your likings. I for one know they are not rodent eaters and love it HOT 150F+. And they love to dig/burrow if given the chance.

    And thanks for the comment about my ornate! Hes doing great and growing like a weed. He starting to trust me more, but still doesnt want to be handled. He is finally becoming comfortable with me being around him though.
