Featured Animal #1   

Peach Throat Monitor (Varanus jobiensis)

$375.99

Additional Info:    ID#0265 Feeding on rat pinkies

https://www.paintedreptile.com/available-animals/lizards/0265-peach-throat-monitor.html

Brief Care Notes:   The peach throat monitor is native to New Guinea and some of the smaller islands nearby. This species of Varanus is terrestrial but does spend a lot of its time in trees along riverbanks. Peach throats are not known to be very tame but with proper care and handling methods its can be achieved. When setting up an enclosure make sure to give plenty of climbing options and hiding spots to make your peach throat feel more comfortable.

Featured Animal #2

Yellow Monitor (Varanus melinus)

$499.99

Additional Info:    ID#10323 Feeding on rat pinkies

https://www.paintedreptile.com/available-animals/lizards/10323-yellow-monitor.html

Brief Care Notes:   The yellow monitor is a medium sized monitor growing to be about 4 feet. This species is primarily terrestrial due to the fact that it has shorter toes making it more difficult to climb. They are a bit shy and tend to flee rather than bite for the most part.

Featured Animal #3   

Mangrove Monitor (Varanus indicus)

$399.99

Additional Info:    ID#10053 Feeding on large mice

https://www.paintedreptile.com/available-animals/lizards/10053-mangrove-monitor.html

Brief Care Notes: The mangrove monitor is primarily found in warm, humid areas in the trees along rivers and streams. In captivity the enclosure should resemble its natural habitat with lots of branches, high humidity and a large water dish for swimming and soaking.

All of the animals above need lots of love and care but also have many different products that can be used to help care for them. Here is a featured product that all three of the above animals can use.
