2nd Sav

Well I really don't know what my wife was thinking but we've ended up with a 2 Sav. She saw it at the pet shop (the only really good one around) and thought it looked lonly well long story short it's with us now. As of now it seems that it's another female so no baby plans. Though the 8 x 4 x 6 foot cage is in the planning and parts are being gathered. It won't be long before they need it. She's slightly larger thatn the one we have but hand tame already. Pictures will naturly follow soon.

Re: 2nd Sav

Good luck dude. Taking on 2 Savannah's is pretty cool, but difficult. You're probably ready to handle it.

No kidding we had more feeders than we needed till one breeding group went down hill. So this month we're buying again untill a new group gets going. I'll be adding another for sure soon.

So on to the pictures, my wife wanted to name her Mojo so here she is.

She currently resides with our other monitor (they've lived togther before at the breeders) in a 120 x 60 x 60cm but will be moving into a larger perment house as soon as it's built.

Re: 2nd Sav

I'm curious how you determined it was a female. I was reading a article on that. Here is some of it:

"For those of you wanting "a pair" of Ackies, or a "female" baby, you have to understand that "monitors (of all types)" are not visually sexable as babies, and there is absolutely no way to guarantee a particular sex when you are selling babies. Anyone who tells you different is trying to deceive you. Sexual characteristics start showing up as early as six months old, and as late as a year. You can look for head shapes, body shapes, hemipenal bulges, and other factors when trying to determine sex, but it is all still educated guess work. Unless a male monitor plainly everts a "hemipene" in your view, it is so very difficult to be sure of the sex of your animal (females will also evert a similar looking hemiclitoris, only confounding the situation). Some folks may have a "female" monitor for 3 years before it has suddenly everted a hemipene that wasn't thought to have existed in the first place."

Pic of Hemipene


The person who sold me mine said if it were a male He "Would show me"

If you'll notice in the picture the size of individual blades of grass, You can see this is obviously a mature animal.
