Really this monitor will fit in a 4X4X8 cage and a 10-15 gal water bowl is fine???
I dont think so..
This is what your water monitor will most likely turn out to be like..
Who has the time to take a 7ft water monitor out and give it daily exercise??? Not too many people.
Why give it a small cramped cage and give it ''its daily exercie''
while you can give it a nice big cage and not worry about your animal till its feeding time or time to clean its poop or water???
I see the person who made this thread allready posted on the RZ forum and allready got his answers soo this thread is useless...
Why would you take it out to excercise and handle? Because if you dont you wind up with a 50lb scaley chainsaw, thats why. It's not a ball python, if it's only interaction with the owner is feeding time, you are gonna have issues.
Why not build a huge cage? Most dont have a room just for an enclosure, so you get by with what suffices rather than what YOU perceive to be opyimal.
The WM pictured there is certainly far above average in size, so it would of course take a larger cage. The average WM is about 35-40 lbs and 6 foot, most of which is tail.
