My favorite lizards are the dwarf species monitors ,any new information is always welcome ,I have had Timors, Freckled,Green Tree ,Yellow , Kimberly. etc. currently have a new hatchling from a breeder in San Pedro California, a Kimberly Rock Monitor (my favorite) its true that American breeders have raised dwarf monitor breeding to a whole new level and have been very successful thus far. thank you for your informative video . Cheers from Southern California.!
DAYUM. I wish I had that many monitors. I hope I can keep at least 3 when I’m an adult (I plan to get an ackie in the next year or so c: )
So glad you are back on TH-cam. Have missed your vids
getting back on the horse
Awesome little lizards thanks for sharing Peter
Glad you enjoyed it
Loved the video! Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
Glad you enjoyed it! Stay safe Spain!
Thank you! We're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel despite our government! 🇦🇺🇪🇸
i really hope so, it looks pretty scary from this side of the world
It's certainly worse than in many other countries because they refused to face the problem on the beginning but we'll get through this, ad we'll remember who drove us to this situation
Awesome animals
Awesome small species of monitor.
Yes they are!
Very entertaining mate like them small monitors
they are cool
love'em, wish i could get my hands on some
you have a great selection. always interesting videos. good to have small species. Keith Australia
Glad you enjoyed it Keith
Good video keep them coming.
Hi Pete!
Ricard from Sweden checking in. I simply love the monitor videos you make. Is into odatria (and mertens) so please keep them coming! Cheers!
Will do! Stay safe
Awsome video mate cant wait to see more!
And more is what you will get Ben
Beautiful animals mate, your collection is inspiring. Makes me work harder seeing this stuff
Wow, thanks
Great video please do more vids on dwarf monitors!
Will do!
Thanks Pete!
You're welcome!
Great episode Peter.
Thanks mate
Loved this vlog
Thank you!!
What a stunning little devil. I love big monitors, but something about dwarf monitors just pulls me in. I think it's their unique personality. They aren't like any other lizard I can think of. Most dwarf animals are unique, but not like dwarf monitors. Great video 👍👍
Join the Dwarf movement Damien
Wish I had one!
Awesome
thanks Steve
Hi Pete, I live in the states and am totally mesmerized by these monitors!!! Do you know if they are available in the states? Any additional tips and tricks on how to care for them? I’m seriously contemplating acquiring a couple
I wish we could get more Aussie reptiles in the US
they are hard to come by over there
Awesome! As soon as the quarantine lifts and work goes back to normal I need to setup an enclosure for these guys. Store near me surprisingly has one available, not sure how long that's gonna last. Still have to do a new gilleni enclosure too, so I have some work to do
Very cool
Hey what store was that? I’m interested in getting some and would love to call and see when they have availability
Hi Peter love your videos, i think it would be awesome if you did a collaboration with Nick over at Wicked Wildlife. Keep up the great work
That would be cool!
Great video, I love watching all your content. I would love to know between Primordius and Gilleni, which do you prefer from a keeper’s perspective? Keep up the amazing work!
Both!
Always wanted some of these guys, can never get my hands on them here in QLD!
They can be hard to find
Gday Pete, great vid. I love small monitors. What lights and how did you hang them?
The lights are a exo terra brand GU10, they are hanging using a zip tie
Great vid, always enjoy seeing your setup for keeping herps. My youngest lad has his heart set on a pair of monitors, but despite suggesting a number of potential options including the primordius he is dead set on Brevicaidas. The only problem is they seem to be a bit like chooks teeth.
more like Unicorns tears, depending on the state they may have higher licence requirements too
@@CrittaCam 😂 I'm in Qld mate, even if they were on a restricted RWL we could have a pair, just wouldn't be able to breed them. Qld regulations range from ridiculous to draconian.
These look amazing! I’m in love with all the dwarf species! How do I get my hands on some? Anyone know any Facebook breeders or anything?
how much would one be if I wanted to buy? for a Male baby
Awesome video Peter! Absolute coincidence as I was watching your much older video on your dwarf monitors earlier today just to get another glimpse of the primordius, its as if you knew.
I know you keep these guys in pairs, is that species preference or for breeding purposes for yourself (or perhaps both)? Just wondering how they are in groups, do they fare as well as their larger acanthurus cousins?
they do well in a group as long as there is multiple hot spots
Any tips on sexing this species? Similar to other monitors?
Hey pete just asking what substrate you are using because it doesn’t look like the regular desert sand you get at the shop !
i believe its the URS brand
Hey, I’ve got a 48 by 24 by 24 just sitting around. You think I can hold two or maybe three in there?
I use nest boxes with good results..
sure makes it easier Scott
How large do they get
Can you talk more about brevicauda ? my favorite species
see what i can do
@@CrittaCam for sure lookingward for a GUIDE ;)
How would someone get these in the usa
How much does these monitors cost in captivity?
Is the care for Varanus storri similar? Is it alright to keep a pair year around?
Yes it is similar and yes they can be housed together all year round
Do you know anyone who breeds in nsw and where I could find them
not really, try some of the reptile sales pages
What monitor species do you think is the most intelligent?
hard to say edward they all shows signs of higher intelligence then what we give reptiles credit for
Can you please stop put up things that I won’t . Lol
SORRY! not sorry
Where can I find one? Lol
They can be difficult to track down
@@CrittaCam I figured! Lol
