Dragon Anyone?

[chams1]

I believe that every household should have their very own dragon (or dinosaur). Here's one of mine that loves to watch what I am doing when I'm taking care of the chams downstairs or at the computer. He will just stand at the glass doors forever watching me until I come over and pet him and/or talk to him (or feed him some more...).

That's awesome and cute too!!! My beardie does the same thing, except he scratches at the door until I let him out!!!

He looks really good..I think its cool how he is watching you. I love his super long claws in pic # 3 !!

I would rather tango with my pissed (whn its angry) off 9 ft 45lb boa .. than have to deal with an angry argus... !!!

Sometimes I leave one of the doors open to air it out a little (it can get pretty humid in there) and if I leave it open too long, either one of them will get the bright idea of leaving the premises and go wandering around (it is a 2-foot jump/climb for them, but they figure it out pretty easily - they are very smart creatures).

Yes, those claws can be deadly if and when he decides he doesn't want to be held anymore (prior to mating and being more mellow). This is what happens (last summer - these are now permanent by the way....):

Rescued a monitor once, but he never did that kind of damage...Maybe just a cut or two...Simply fantastic lizards them monitors. Talk about smart!

Thanks for sharing.

Most monitors don't have the claws that the argus does. He did this to me a couple of times, but it was my own fault for not wearing the "long" gloves.
