Day three!!! Their normal "crashing around" routine non existent. All of his attention to her, is consuming all of his time. This is awesome!!

That definitely sounds like proper mating - she’s cycling for sure if they’re doing it every day, he’s that focused and it’s consensual.

Only breaks are for morning basking, feeding and an occasional swim
Other than that....where she goes...he goes!

You will have eggs in a few weeks. How have you tackled nesting? It needs to be good now....deep substrate kept in mid 80’s°F.

I have a deep plastic tub with sand - soil mix moistened. It on the warm side of the vive. Temp gun reads 86 degrees in the box. What do we figure about 35-45 days for eggs?? This species can triple clutch....so frequent inspection of the vive floor and nest box will be a must. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Rudicollis is the sister species to the savator complex, should be getting eggs before 30 days.

They are one of my favorite species, good job. I remember there was a woman in Ontario who was breeding and hatching them a good 10 years ago. Kept them in a modified closet.

Check out my video on YouTube. Title is monitors mating 7 27 12.
It about 4 minutes. My girlfriend filmed it, I apologize in advance for the water spots on the glass.

Looks as if mating has ceased. So now we wait.

Should be eggs in about 20-25 days I’d guess. Good luck.
