Thank you, I've got a male & two females & I'm hoping they'll breed in the coming months.

Damn what happened to the poor fella? Either way you've done a phenomenon job, he/she looks as healthy as a lacie can look

Where's he going Richard?

Where's he going Richard?

Off to Brissy, mate, with an experienced reptile handler as part of a reptile educational display. I'm sure he'll get plenty of "quiet time" too.

Richard, what's going on in pic 2 and 3? Force feeding, or something else?

Love the last photo. He looks wide-eyed and alert.

Spot on, Nick, though it looks more brutal than it actually was. He wanted the food item but it kept dropping from his dislocated lower jaw, so I had to place the item further to the back of the throat. A few days of this and he was taking small rodents on his own.

Thanks, he's done well, all considering. An unforgettable experience and a real testament to just how amazingly strong willed and tough Lacies are. But I'm sure I don't need to tell you that!

Just makes me love em more.

Wow this thread is big, seen so many pics of lacies (tho not complaining, would like to see more ) does anyone have any pics of adult sand monitors (Varanus gouldii gouldii)?, ive seen a few pics of juvies but not many adults.

Flicker the lace monitor

Nice Lacie Karly.

 

[Karly]

Thanks Chris he is pretty awesome

 

[crocdoc]

Nice Lacie Karly.

Yeah, what he said! Flicker is looking like a girl, at this stage. Could still develop the secondary sexual characteristics of a male, but at this stage 'her' head is saying "female".

Loving all the picture's everyone! Haven't been through the whole thread :s
Anyone got any indoor setup's for full grown spencer's?
Is a 6x2x2 big enough to keep 3 adult ackie's in?

Anyone got any indoor setup's for full grown spencer's?

It would need to be big, lot's of floor space. I have my Panoptes pair (similar sized monitor) in a 3.0x1.5x1.5 with just over a tonne of sand in it at a depth of about 300mm. Ideally I'd love to give them more room.

a 6x2x2 big enough to keep 3 adult ackie's in?

Yes.
