That male really loves being petted and it was so funny how he dropped down right in the middle of everything when you were giving attention to the other one! I hope you can get her as socialized as he is!

[@jordangarcia465]

6:47 "Mind if I drop in"

[@susanmartin3762]

Look how they're snuggling!! It's so cute how he's nuzzling her while you're petting her to let her know she's in good hands! And her arm is around him is just too much😍😍 oh young love. You said she just ate alot of food! I guess so. She looks like she ate an entire cow!

[@samanthadreiling5699]

I know he didn't help your interaction with the water monitor, but the croc monitor's personality and behavior is adorable!

[@HoundofOdin]

She acts just like my girlfriend does if I wake her up from a nap or bug her after a meal, lol.

[@SuganProductions]

today ma little savannah monitor let me touch and pet him for the first time. Thanks to your videos, helpt me a lot. Im gonna stick on it now day by day by the positiv threats

[@NewEnglandReptile]

PERFECT!!!! A little each day will pay off!

[@WikkidVyxen]

Look at her cuddling him! Cutest thing I've ever seen!! And excellent knowledge too, Kevin lol.

[@TheLaughingDove]

That male downright hamming it up for attention, goodness! What beautiful animals

[@THC.Diamond]

Awwe, he's just a big baby that wants love. 💚

[@saionixfiction3650]

Lmao he just wants love

[@jomama5186]

Is she....preggers? She is an awfully big, healthy girl! Thank you for loving these animals!

[@arazlam4754]

Great video, full of so much good advice. The socialization videos are so awesome.

[@tabbiragan915]

Her putting her arm on the other is so sweet. They are snugglin😀

[@zacharylipke9488]

6:47 oh hey whats good

[@Gizathecat2]

If that female monitor was a cat, she’d be popping out a litter of six!

[@Gottalovecarpetpythons]

l loved this video and l can relate this over to snakes and getting them to socialise as well. l spend a lot of one on one time with each of them and l have learnt to read their body language and know what they are telling. My snakes are all amazing and love my attention and spending time out of their enclosures with me. l still have one girl that l am working with to get her to understand that l mean her no harm but once she is out she is great, only alittle enclosure defensive at this point.

[@ericgritter4859]

Roflmao "and the reason why shes having a problem..." ohhh is that my que to jump on her head? Holy shit i had to stop the video hahahahahha

[@jessepease567]

I always enjoy your monitor videos. Fun to watch and very informative. 😃

[@Gizathecat2]

He’s like a jealous dog wanting all Kevin’s attention! “Leave her alone! You’re MY hu-man”

[@TeeJ312]

Don’t mind me over here just trying to get out of my water 😂

[@ramennight]

Love this video. Great to learn and will help with my book. Thanks

[@jomama5186]

They are definitely buddies !

[@vivienleigh4640]

I'm not even planning to get a reptile (not true in a scientific sense - I have birds, cockatiels, but still) but I learn a lot. So interesting!

[@R11176]

Excellent monitor info!!!

[@kaemon590]

You gotta make another vid once shes all settled in and comfortable with the new enclosure id love to know how long it takes and see the progress!

[@TheHouseOfCards519]

Your videos are amazing , i love the amout of knowledge you share with us all

[@Branfaol1]

He's called Godzooki!! I love it!

[@debconness7718]

I think if the would was like a tree bark or normal not sanded they could climb better . I see you did that on one with some cuts

[@slydogg121]

It would be awesome to see you and Kennan colab

[@AlexsAgamids]

Hey Kevin, could some of these behavior techniques be applied to Tegus as well?

[@kathleenroberts6357]

No wonder it is acting the way it is because a lizard fell on it's head

[@NathansWildLife]

Can you do this with baby savannah monitors

[@TheOGDark]

Very helpful video thanks man 🤘

[@livingthehartslife6538]

Best monitor training video 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@andreware6492]

This is the exact technique i use with the a chick to gain her trust- works everytime lol

[@crystaltripi6775]

She is absolutely gorgeous, love her little face, also I love the voice you use with your animals (might be the crazy cat lady in me😉) and you know what think they like it as well😊👍. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us I know you are very hands on with all your animals so you must be crazy busy love your vlog they really make my day😄 best wishes always..

[@mattgosling2657]

What's the difference between Nile and Water monitors cos they look the same to me.

[@Quacktum]

Why does the one monitor want your attention so badly? Can you tell me how I can make my monitor like that or just send me videos of yours to help me? I really want to use my monitor lizard in educational programs with kids at some point so he needs to be as friendly as possible.

[@kevinbodnar3719]

Length wise, how big do Asian water monitors get in their first year?

[@jonathanfrenzel6130]

You should go on reptile basics they have this thing called the it's called The Heat Protector a ceramic heat emitter so if it's better it can get a little bit warmer it's called cheap

[@GoldFish-dl4tt]

Jonathan Frenzel he knows what he is doing probaly know more than You Do.

[@beausmith5039]

Want one sooooo bad!!!

[@joshuaburgos3450]

hello! I love you and your animals! They are amazing, Im looking to purchase a savannah monitor do you have any tips?

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Lots and lots of babies around right now....a good way to start!

[@joshuaburgos3450]

New England Reptile Distributors you have baby savs? it may be a lil while before I can purchase one but I want to get as much information as I can on them and would love if you could do a video with one!

[@grime5652]

New England Reptile Distributors Ive been thinking of getting a monitor for a couple years now. However I just haven’t got the space, but I will do eventually. Love your channel! How big a cage do you need for a monitor? considering they can grow to be pretty big. I have money but cannot find any vivarium big enough to be suitable for a grown monitor. Will I just have to convert a small room into the vivarium? I’m looking at getting a Bosc monitor, since they are one of the smaller species.

[@r3ptomaniac190]

I really love monitors and plan on getting one someday. Argus monitors are my favorite. Do you think it would be possible to establish a trusting relationship with one if I got it from a young age?

[@raymondjacque6289]

R3ptoManiac I know it’s possible but very difficult cause they usually tend to be biters and don’t really have the best personality monitor wise

[@loveblessings212]

What type of monitor is the male?

[@tristanroberts8016]

Can I assume this is the same for smaller lizards like geckos?

[@Danbimmerfan]

I could be wrong but I wouldn’t take anything you see behavioral wise that works for monitors to assume it works the same for geckos, monitors are vastly more intelligent and have very different personalities to geckos in my experience

[@christianandersen5521]

Other lizards could react to similar treatment.

[@okamiproductions7471]

What type of monitor is the tan one?

[@Tungsten91]

Albino Varanus Salvator

[@flaziblaz]

that male is so spoiled lol

[@Arts_papa]

NICE

[@proudangloausie6718]

I think your big guy wants some attention lol

[@riverheames2034]

Damn, she is a C H O N K . What did she eat

[@williamdunsten3993]

River Heames I wondered the same thing. Shes round.

[@waynezgames8376]

She looks pregnant .

[@boobo3763]

What's kind of crazy is that when I see all of these enclosures, I say to myself, "There's no way this is acceptable...", but all of Kevins animals look SO happy... Keeping in mind I don't know anything about animal husbandry...

[@D4n0w4r]

THICC

[@andrewbryan4929]

Talk about body language with another less friendly species and I'll give you credit otherwise you're working with a pretty chill species that kind of accepts interaction more often than not.
