I'm considering getting timor monitors for a future breeding project, I just wondered what the opinion of other people was towards keeping and breeding timors?

Also if anyone has any recommendations of any other dwarf monitors that would make great pets, and also a good possible breeding project. Preferably at a reasonable price, by which I mean that I'm not looking to pay £800+ which is what some dwarf monitors seem to fetch.

Never many CB Timors about, so it would be good to see someone working with them.

Other dwarf monitors, try looking for Freckled monitors, or Black Headed monitors, also the price on glauerti will be alot cheaper for this years babies (way under £800, prob under £450). Green tree monitors are pretty cool too.

Out of all the dwarfs, I would recommend the Glauerti as the best.

Having Timors for the most part is like having an empty tank Confused
