Setting Up For Baby Water Monitor Lizard Pets - Basic How To and Set up Considerations

[@Daffy12316]

I just gotta say thanks a lot for making this video I was looking for something to show me how to help make my nile monitor less afraid of me and this defiantly looks like it will work again thx a bunch

[@ok_iot]

Always voming in utch for just what i need. Thanks kevin.

[@alpharaptorjp3134]

0:08 pause. Look like a Brachiosaurus

[@tasha_111_]

Another great video 👏😊 It's so true what you said about too much substrate in a young monitor's enclosure, it can definitely set them up to fail..

[@ashsnape8352]

Dude you have totally changed my outlook on hides.watched this, took out the enclosed hides and left only ones where he could always see me and now he's like a new lizard. Thank you so much bud 👍

[@alexcrowder1673]

Looks great. I had a similar set-up for awhile, but nothing lasts long with monitors haha. These suckers sure can grow. 6" per month for nearly a year or even more is not unheard of. That's what my Nile averaged and water monitors are even larger.

[@straightwhitemale2728]

Im.currently doing EVERYTHING you've said. In alot of hour videos. Only thing I dont do is use those powersun bulbs. My 100w barely got past 100°. And that's after a few hours.

[@ohminsun]

I am just seeing this video now, but great video and super helpful!

[@kensimon1773]

Awesome video I’m going to do this for my Nile monitor hatchling

[@timphillips9954]

That's way too hot Key! I live in Cambodia and see these animals on a daily bases. Very rarely does it get over 90 here, so even in a basking area it won't get much of 100 a couple of year! Like most reptiles they don't come out in the mid day sun. You only see them basking early in the morning and late in the afternoon. 110 is more than that for the hot season April - early Nov By the end of Dec it can get down to 22 at night and ambient 30 ish in the day for the hot season 35-6 ambient temp should be fine

[@LanceLouis7008]

You talked about heat temps but you didn’t talk about humidity levels so in the enclosure you just said you need humidity. But how much is preferred? What percentage? Can you tell more?

[@user-jk3ge4xc4b]

we need more vids of the black monitors that u have. care vids how to tame them what do they eat exactly n how often (any subs for insects if i live somewhere far from any pet store that sells them.. ur daily routine with them since babies till adult time feeding temp' etc .. youtube in general dont have enough vids of these beautiful creatures i hate it

[@lakotacollins5451]

That black dragons are Water Monitors, just apply the same concepts he does

[@tragicboy9991]

Best thing to do is hand feed when baby and hold them atleast 4 times a week don’t put to much stress play with them in the bathtub and do that every day that’s how I tame my cumingi Asian water monitor when I first got her she would just snap try and bite me start off with food

[@tragicboy9991]

Time and patience it’s a lot off work but it pays off

[@ZiPPiOnYoutube]

hey where did you get the ceramic tile?

[@mat3801]

The 100w intensified says roughly 90 but the ground has a heating pad should i still be worried about temp being too low if his belly still has the mat under him despite my thermostat saying ranges from 90- 104?

[@Branfaol1]

Would some of the tips beside the open set up work with a tristick monitor as well the difference them being more arboreal.

[@billsexotics4323]

Good Care Video!

[@SBK_Reproduction]

What substrate do I use if bulb doesn't have uvb?

[@mybushcraftlife9778]

I rather build a in ground pool. I see your point.

[@BigzoTv]

so no hides ?

[@kfreps5750]

how the hell can you get such a huge gradient of heat in a 30inch enclosure, Even in 4 ft vivs with a 120 basking spot I find it near impossible to keep the ambient temps bellow 90

[@agustingonzalez4230]

KFReps mines a 40 gal with a 150w , and the air temp is roughly 90. So I guess it's possible.

[@terryharris8228]

This setup is to gain trust as babies

[@terryharris8228]

But this is a 7 yo video

[@chicken_tender2g855]

What about when it gets older

[@Tom-bw5hd]

+ New England would a 4 foot tank work or should I use a 3 foot

[@DGCExotics]

We’re did you got does dried leafs from

[@BillyBobBrockali69]

Check out Josh's frogs if you haven't already www.joshsfrogs.com/bioactive/substrates.html

[@davinaubade8733]

can we use aquarium heater in the water

[@thetruth2860]

Where Can I Order One Online

[@commonsense7667]

can you do a start on a crocodile monitor plz.

[@capyc]

Water monitor would be first of all less dangerous which is a good think they also dont take as much space but also crocodile monitors could even get your arm amputated which means water monitors are much safer and cheaper and smaller

[@crispgaming3035]

Can u do this but w a tegu?

[@theowl4583]

+BIGamer28 A matter of fact yes, if you look on there playlist youll see what to watch . It will have a similar vid for a tegu.

[@tootoxic6840]

I had no idea that by allowing them a hide to sleep in or hang out under was inadvertently hurting my relationship with them. Super helpful video Kev, thanks man

[@juliac3933]

Well its basically sensory deprivation forcing the lizard to interact with you

[@tragicboy9991]

I have a 160 bulb with a long uv light for my cumingi asian water monitor and she is healthy then a mofo and just mist every day puppy tame the enclosure is 7 feet long and she is 3 feet long for now

[@billsexotics4323]

Does this set up work for a baby Red bearded dragon if I use a 160 WATT Zoo Med power sun light heat bulb? I'll keep my baby on paper towels. I know for a fact that I cannot use sand with any Lizard species. Sand is deadly to baby Lizards.

[@lindapazsoldan5744]

people saying you need a lot of humidity like at 70-80 and say thats decently hard to get me lives in peru and air temperature is naturally70-90 humidity unlickily almost no one ships to peru

[@krete69]

Yeah, I think the same too, the weather in south america is just like south east asia, that would be great for asian water monitor to keep in there.

[@ashsnape8352]

Hi mate from england 👍 are the same principles good for a baby savannah monitor? ( no hides as such to aid socialisation and a ceramic tile? Thank you in advance bud

[@cullenbrankin4098]

Is it hard to take care of Asian water monitor?

[@Phaminator525]

can i set up like a kind of water with land setup ? like a turtle setup with a bit more land?

[@TheMlf]

when theyre babys I dont see why not they love to swim but it would probably be harder to clean the cage and all

[@derickberrios219]

How much do these cost?

[@raymondjacque6594]

Derick Berrios the enclosure or the monitor

[@brianmcguirt2432]

the monitor is at least 800 most likely in the 1200 range

[@billsexotics4323]

20 Gallon Long Fish Tank for a baby bearded dragon?

[@sp3ctr3poopydoopy14]

Will Rosenberg just do research

[@LuckieNess]

That'll work. Yes 👌🏾

[@teresacole9102]

this is horiboll theres nothing to climb theres nower to swim and its to small

[@teresacole9102]

an thay love to dig theres no substrate

[@krete69]

Like literally he already give an explanation for that, why he doesn't use a substrate. That wire and blue box is for climb and swims.

[@roywood2252]

you should have also set it up better than talking about it thanks.
