    Yellow Ackie :)
    I picked up the August issue of Reptiles and they had a big article on dwarf monitors. It was fairly short, but I think I sparked my fiances interest in getting an yellow ackie....I know someone around here has one but I could not remember who or what kind they had. My fiance wanted to know what size enclosure and the costs associated with keeping an ackie. Any other info ,good ackie sites or breeders that anyone knows of would be a big help too....Thanks :)

    I think it's Python77 that has one. Not sure though.

    You can keep one in an enclosure comparable in size to a 30 gallon tank. Something deeper is better, however, as they love to dig. Many people use livestock watering troughs. You can buy those in farming supply stores.

    Ackies eat a lot, but I can't imagine them being terribly expensive to feed if you buy feeders in bulk online.
