I have had these less then a week. This is the female. The male is still a bit skiddish, but is coming around.

As you can see, the female is already shedding.

The pics above is the female...she is roughly 10-11". Females tend to be lighter than the males.

Here are a few pics of my male. He is roughly 12". As you can see he is darker than my female.

Currently they both pig out on ground turkey with greens mixed in as well as Reptical calcium powder.


Once they get a little bigger they will get a varied diet of ground turkey, chicken gizzards and hearts and chicken breast as well as hard boiled eggs with the shell on for added calcium.I will also offer fruit, but at this time I am not sure. I feed this same diet to my Columbian Tegu as well as my adult pair of Savannah monitors.

Mine are housed together. They get along great, hopefully it will stay that way.

I have a few names in mind, but haven't decide which ones yet.
