The best substrate for humidity in my opinion is a mixture of eco earth and sand mixed together and 4-5 inches deep so they can burrow. My savannah loves that mixture and it holds all his burrows, never have any shedding problems.

[@yeahexceptno]

You're such a good savannah mom

[@car8004]

If they enjoy a humid hide, I would recommend getting a humidity box with moss and other stuff in it. That way they can also regulate how much humidity they're getting.

Thank you for inspiring me to keep reptiles!

First visit here. Great content, video and personality. And you've really improved your presentations, I see, over time - very professional now (and my ears don't hurt from your exuberance) without losing such a fine engaging delivery. Thanks!

[@TheBioExplorer]

I realize this is an older video but thank you for the content just the same ascI suddenly have a baby Savannah on my hands. I've kept reptiles for about 20 years but a Savannah was never on my list... not that I really have a list... but I've actually never bought a single reptile. They are all rescue/rehoming/rehab situations. I've rescued & rehabbed for release (native species)... and some I've rescued and given to good homes but many gave stayed with as you know how easy it is ti fall in love. I've never has a monitor though. In the past they just weren't that common in our local pet trade but I guess it's picking up. Thus past weekend I went to my favorite locally owned pet store, where they know me well, to pick up some feeder insects and rodents. The next think I know the manager say ti hold out my hands and plops a very agitated baby Savannah in my hands and says... " You NEED to take this home. No charge and habitat included." I could see right away the habitat wasn't great. The size is ok for the time being... but there were no lights... especially no UV. You could tell the water hadn't been poured out for travel but had evaporated at some point as there was a lot of white residue and dried poop in the dish. I'm not sure what the substrate is but itsso that needs to be improved.

awwww i have wanted one of these guys for ssooo lonng!!! when we move back to the mainland from hawaii i am planning on getting one! i love how big they grow and how small they start off!! so fun can’t wait!

[@robin9321]

Such gorgeous little things!!

[@littlesweetrocky]

If you're having issues with keeping the humidity, I would suggest using Coco husk and sphagnum moss. Instead of misting, you just need to mix water into the substrate and the moss, and make sure that it's not dripping wet. It should be moist to the touch!

[@JossersJungle]

Great advice! I'll look into it! Thank you 😄

[@littlesweetrocky]

@@JossersJungle no problem! Happy to help❤

[@Blovee3]

Yes I second the sphagnum moss for extra humidity

Why did you choose sav monitor instead of tegu

[@JossersJungle]

I don't have that much, if any, experience with tegus and they also need a much more varied diet than the Savannah monitor. And then I guess I'm just more a Savannah monitor person 😊 but they are amazing none the less 🙌

@@branmandagoat3978 no, they can actually be way more expensive then tegus, their diet is way more expensive so even though they're cheaper to buy I would buy a tegu if I was planing to get a good cheap animal. But that doesn't mean they're cheap at all

How's it going bro? Do not make this mistake of keeping him in a small enclousure, the forums are full of people wondering why their savs are not growing fast. My male is 26" at 7 months old in a 5×3.5 and he will soon out grow this as well.

[@kenclark803]

Watching you’re video. Some good some bad. The Exo Terra’s are not good for enclosures because of the thermal gradient. Monitors need a hot spot of 120-130 degrees. You mentioned obese monitors. This is because most people do not practice proper husbandry an many die of fatty livers because temps aren’t right. Will a Savannah live at 80-90 degrees? Yes, but their metabolism isn’t working, hence the obesity. They need a large enclosure with a minimum of 18” of burrowing. Once properly heated and active with humid hides they are super active! For babies I use a Retes stack for thermal gradients. Over 14” they need a huge space. A super underrated species that is imported far too often to languish and die due to bad husbandry.

[@michaelrodriguez-spruill5578]

I just got a Savannah monitor today but he is 5 months old

[@cleomarie5016]

Commenting seeking help I have a baby but hes bigger than your little dude/dudette. Ive made him a burrow under his basking aria and used a slice of bark for that then got two sticks and another slice of bark on top and two smaller pieces with slate on top at the basking area which sits at 34.2c he got potting soil mixed with tortoise soil. The cool end has another corner hide that he never uses and a tub of water for a pool and hes got a sprinkle of bark on the top of the current soil, hes got a few decor pieces so fake plants for hides and artificially rock formations, the cold side sit at 24c via heat mat on the outside of the glass. He’s had 1 locust in three days and he stays in. The pre made burrow and never basks or come out. He has layers of stuck shed and is missing a toe (pet shop bought) he has a bowl of fresh water, bowl of small and normal medal words and locust and brown crickets all over yet just hiding. Ive tried to google the issue as I can’t find an exotic vet near me. Any tips? Ive even tried a large tub of water and kept him inside to try soak of the shed hes got. Humidity is 66%

How much did you buy them for

[@caidenmata2943]

Mine is about the same age as yours and she’s growing like crazy. She hasn’t pooped in about 5 days... I was wondering if anyone had any answers for that. Her enclosure is super accurate with temps and humidity. She’s very alert and active too and eats every day. Also she is shedding right now, maybe that could be the reason for no poop?

[@skylarbrenner1149]

Caiden Mata what are your exact temperatures and humidity? What’s diet? Substrate?

[@caidenmata2943]

High temp is 120, clooler temp is 80-85. Right now I have the humidity at 65% to help her poop. I feed her 10-15 small crickets everyday and a pinkie once a week. Always dusted with calcium/D3 She also has a uvb light that I run 8 hours a day. She seems perfectly fine and doesn’t feel bloated, but I just haven’t seen any poop... also her substrate is eco earth coconut fiber

[@caidenmata2943]

Sometimes I let her go a day without eating to help her completely digest

[@skylarbrenner1149]

Caiden Mata I wouldn’t worry too much then, that all sounds fine to me

[@caidenmata2943]

That’s good to hear. Thank you for your help

[@jonaschristiansen4724]

[@strikersreptiles2891]

Hi. It’s clear from this video that you are passionate about your animals, but it’s not a good idea to be holding them when you’ve had them for just a couple of weeks. Gaining their trust is a process and they come from a very grim industry that sees them shipped across the world just days after hatching, then being re-packed and shipped to distributors and pet stores, then being plopped into an improper setup until the time of sale. When they are held outside of their tanks they lose heat and humidity rapidly along with the fact that this added stress can cause their health to deteriorate fast. There are also a lot of good reasons not to keep them in tanks. Wish you and those savs the best and keep learning.

[@naima2156]

Yay

[@Roach_Cock]

A savs diet is mainly insects it's entire life, not just when it's a hatchling.

Do they make good pet's? I think I heard some were they bite very hard. How big does there cage need to be when they are grown?

[@cruzelloco1046]

If you dedicate time to them every day they will usually become more tame. But do not forget that they have different personalities believe it or not. Some maybe more angry then others. As for size, expect any where from 3 feet to five feet.

[@skylarbrenner1149]

They tend to do very poorly in captivity.

Hi! I need some good advices. My less than a year old Western Hognose male hasn't eaten for over a month now and I'm a bit worried because he's still so young. I got him into a bigger enclosure but he stopped eating there and a couple weeks ago I switched him back to his old smaller enclosure but he still hasn't eaten. :/ I've warmed the pinkies with a hair dryer, tried to scent them with tuna and brained the pinkies but nothing has helped. :/ I haven't handled him unless in necessary situations. Should I just give him more time to settle back into his smaller enclosure or should I go to see a vet? He has plenty of substrate to burrow in, a lot of hiding places and temps are okay but he still ain't eating. :/

[@Ricardowieringa]

Kosmik hi from what j can see from the one video you have posted of him you seem to feed him outside of the enclosure when you do that snakes are more often prone to not eat other than that just keep waiting and moniter his weight if he drops with about 10% go see the vet immediatly other and watch out for a spine that is visible at all times that is a clear sign of an underweight snake good luck

[@kosmik8647]

@@Ricardowieringa Thank you for the aswer. :) I used to feed him out of the enclosure because I was worried he might swallow substrate if he was fed in his tank. I've now tried to feed him in his enclosure but still no luck. :/ I'll keep monitoring his weight. Is it okay to try to offer him food once a week or is it too often? I'm trying not to stress him too much.

[@Ricardowieringa]

Kosmik once a week is alright if you don’t bother him at all

[@figuresix]

Oh yeah also you might want to inform your viewers that 99.9% of all Savannah Monitors are wild, and NEED a vet ASAP for parasites. There is maybe 3 at tops who have captive bred SM. So its very important if you want your SM to live a healthy life get him to a vet right away.
