All this talk about Ackies
Well after all this talk about these Ackies, I started reading up on them and wow. Im reading up on all types but think im going to have to get a Ackie. Ill probably wait tell next reptile show and it seems like its a way off at this point. So is there any other monitors that would be a good first one?

Re: All this talk about Ackies
What type of ackie are you thinking of gettting? Yellow or red?
You can also check into the other dwarf monitors....black-headed monitors and freckled monitors. These are just a bit bigger than Ackies.

Re: All this talk about Ackies
How is your new Ackie doing Marshall? I got to see my first Ackies in person last Friday and I am sold....As soon as I get the space to setup a really nice enclosure I plan on getting a few.
How is the temperment on yours?
