the ambient air temp does not need to be 130. it's the surface temp that needs to be 130. the air temp should not exceed 115 ever, because that means the basking spot surface is exceeding 155 and that is extremely dangerous
you're not supposed to feed them small portions multiple times. You're supposed to feed them a large amount all at once, then don't feed them again for 2 days.
@@GoldFish-dl4tt yes we get that....but twice a week decent meals not to much is better for them...i think he is doing good tbh alot better than I was 10 years ago I'll tell you that.....no one is perfect nor will they 100% get it right it is very hard to completely replicate a specific environment.....
My little guy loves eggs seems to be his favorite also loves eating the freez dried meal worms tho he/she is secretive I hope it eventually will eat in front of me and stay out more time will tell
My basking spot is about 125 - 130 with the air temp or 100 - 105 my humidity is around 40 to 50 percent (ik should be about 60) my Savannah monitor just recently is allowing me to touch him in his enclosure but he needs to smell me first I have to pet him a little then I'm able to take him out my Savannah (name yoshi) is little bigger than your but very shy he rarely bites he use to be very skidish and defensive now I can handle him for a while and he doesn't want to let me hand go so I let him pick when it is time to return home....i feed my yoshi twice a week and he is very happy not comfortable with my lids but my wife and me he loves he just tries to run but it is a work in progress I've only had him for about a month or so
no. minimum is 8ft x 4ft x 4ft. get the adult enclosure first. this reduces stress and saves you money in long room. you can get by with a 6ft x 2ftx 3ft.

Texas guy I mean technically you can. In the wild they don't have cages lol and they raise up fine. The only problem with having a cage that big with such a small animal is you may lose him every once in a while lol
depends on your monitor they all have different tastes in a sense, mine will eat all bugs live or freeze dried. he'll also eat hardboiled egg beef cubes chicken breast..

Kids not lids lol
Umm
Where do you buy those
What size tank is that
Hey would a 40 gal breeder tank be good for one ??? (Baby Savannah)
For a baby it would be fine. But when it gets older it will need something bigger like 60-100 gallon tanks.

Good video though
I tried feeding mine meal worms and it doesn't seem to interested in them would you recommend meal worms or crickets
crickets
depends on your monitor they all have different tastes in a sense, mine will eat all bugs live or freeze dried. he'll also eat hardboiled egg beef cubes chicken breast..
personally i make a monitor mush type thing i mix up hardboiled egg ground beef really low in fat crickets and meal worms
Reptiles shouldn’t have mealworms period. They’re hardly good for birds because their chitin is so dense. Dubai roaches over any other feeder
Dubia roaches.
He needs top soil and play sand mix for substrate
Ummm. I don't know what to think ummm.
Don’t know what sex it is he so he him his cage
