All your content seriously❤it

Thank you I really appreciate hearing that u enjoy them ill be back at it soon but not to worry all the reptiles including the Russell's mangrove monitor are doing great! You'll see them soon in a new video.

Hey bud how's it going and yes i thought about it the one I had was a male and was very dark black 🖤 deff. was a beaut 👌 miss that one for sure! I have been eyeing a blue tailed monitor and have been wanting one since forever so let's see what happens.

i think so

Thanks bro

I got mine about 5 months ago as a baby hatching so I'd say mine is 6months old so if urs is a foot long head to tail aka a baby I'd say with good daily feedings to sometimes every other day depending how big his meals are per feeding and also depending if urs is male or female cuz females are a bit smaller then males so there growth rates is going to be less per month but by alittle . So I'd say 5 months to 6months and urs should be 2 ft for a female to 2.5ft for a male but that's if u feed daily and sometimes everythother day consistency in feeding and nutritional supplements are key to have good growth fast. In one year ur water monitor can easily reach 3 ft or alil over easy. Also make sure the basking spot temps is good so it can digest food fast and be ready for more food and also the uvb is there. uvb goes hand in hand with calcium that comes from the food as in whole prey items like mice or food with alil bone in it and also calcium dusted crickets . They also have Growth spurts so at any given time as they older they can get bigger by alot of inches faster then other previous months so in other words lets just say me and u got a monitor the same day and same size and same sex urs or mine can go through a growth spurts at any point and gain 2 or even 4 inches more faster but on average expect urs to be 2 ft like mine in about 5 months from now . Just feed good the feedings will get him to grow fast.

Thank you brother

Hey I remember you how have u been buddie and yes sorry alot had changed but I'm still posting.

Thanks bud am glad u like the video I put out. As for the mangrove I used to have other ones that I grew and then I rehomed them to a friend of mine but those and even the current one I have all seem to be the same as far as there ways of being. I learn that mangrove are just more shy / reclusive basically like to be on left alone as if they fear alot and the way to get them out of that is just by owning them and eventually they start trusting alittle by little I will tell u it does take alot alot longer then most other monitor breeds but it will happen just have to try and let time pass and always positive interaction and if u think it's not going well stop and try again another time. Just be apart of there life's as in pass by and feed and clean up after them all those times will add up and he is building memory and he will understand u are apart of his life and see ur not a threat. Some just take longer then others remember that when all animals are small they see life differently they think everything is out to get them so as they get bigger they feel more confident like they are the predator so they won't be so skittish just always be carefull cuz then ur the one that can get hurt so use gloves if u have to. The best way to connect as they get other is by food if ur the one bring them the food they will remember and need u. Basically like our parents used to tell us about Animals "they don't bite the hand that feeds them" . It's alot easier to have a trained monitor like a asian water monitor those are more rewarding as far as getting them tame. Mangrove just require more work and takes longer but it is possible and when it does happen u will be happier cuz u earned a great monitor not everyone can do it so keep at it and don't give up cuz it's worth it. Prove to the monitor community u was able to get it done😉

Just let time pass and keep doing as u are things will change and u will learn about ur mangrove and adapt to it. She will change as time passes and it will all fall together cuz as more and more time passes u both will understand each other's patterns ull see 😉 its just the mangrove way😁

@@RealWildLife2.0 I remember your other mangrove on your old channel that one was great too but the one u got now is cooler in my opinion because it’s a Russell island, anyways thanks for the advice I will use this knowledge to the best I can 😎

@@user-ov3ou2ze3d awesome awesome and yes ull do great and keep in touch about ur mangrove 👍🏼 😀

Thank you I know I thought of adding a substrate box but I'm working on something today that she will like alot aswell watch the next 2 videos that will come out soon . ull hear what it is and see it after that. Good video's 😉

Hey pat19 and yup for me too.

Yes I used to have another channel before this one last year and part of the year before that aswell with other reptiles and they all did good cuz I'm In the south texas area so I add heat with a thermostat control and keep it warm and some extra hear lamps with small heat emitters for localized heat aswell so they can have basking Temps but at the same time i did let them experiance some temp change but it's fine I let them experience some natural seasonal change like they would in the wild. Right now with the heat being summer I control it with alot of fan and ventilation and in the peak of the heat each day humidifier to moisten the air last year I had a water cooler worked great but not needed learned alot more I let it peak some what in the greenhouse with hot Temps for a small period so they can cmget some hea they need but for most of the day time it's warm but managed well cuz of all the control I have I keep sensors graphing to my phone . My last batch of reptiles grew up perfect I had to rehome them in Nov. Cuz of my work I had to work out of state and over seas rigs at the time but now I'm a local truck driver so I'm good with these reptiles but like I said my last batch of reptiles got big I even had young cuvier caimans on the bottom it was a whole thing wish u would of seen. They all got rehomed to Gator pool Gator before his channel got taken off and he helped find homes for them with experienced keepers.

I even had a bigger greenhouse that was 20ft long plus an extension I added 10 more extra feet totalling 30 ft with bigger enclosures inside that greenhouse got sold when I sold my land but I had started off with the one ur seeing it was alil different tho the pond was bigger about half of one side then I took it down and expanded to the one I'm telling u about. Now I just redid the small greenhouse this one ur seeing. And keeping a few reptiles and keeping like that till I get my ranch soon to expand again. I still have the 8 by 8 by 3ft enclosures that were in my other Greenhouse but in a big storage I'm saving them for later. U can ask Tony view on the comments he has been a subscriber since my old channel and saw it all. Well good look with ur builds if u were looking to do something like mine if that is why ur asking all this or ur just trying to know about it!😉

Yeah this my first time seeing ur video i use to have a whole room with all kinds of reptiles in the house but i had to get rid of them Your channel pretty cool i really dont see anyone on here thats in Tx with reptile video and with ur set up its giving me ideas iv never thought a greenhouse But now me buy a house i can do something similar yeah i was just curious Thanks for posting ur videos
