why don’t you try a savannah monitor, they make great pets, are beautiful, and don’t put a hole in your wallet

"Doesn’t put a hole in your wallet."

Let me guess, yours in young. Let us know if you still feel this way in about a year. Have you built an adult enlcosure, or paid an adult food bill yet?

An Ackie at $250 is a steal compared to a $35 sav. It’s amazes me that people are so naive as to only look at the purchase price of the actual lizard.

i have built a 6’x4’x’3’ cage and it cost me around $120, and the food bill is not too much because i buy wholsale adult mice for about $0.25 each and they last me around 3 weeks, not to mention that i have 3 jobs that pays $8 hour together and i work 10-15 hours a day on the weekends and just about every day in the summer. that pays for my sav and 4 other lizards a dog a cat and 3 tortoises.
