Ya ill get you some better pics later today or mabey tomorrow. Its just so hard to hold the little guy! Let alone get a pic. I was wonderin if you have had any experience with arugs monitors? From what i was told they are all show and no bite, but mine begs to differ. Little guys necks so long he can reach and bite my pinky and ring finger of the same hand im holding him with! OUCH! little buggers gots some teeth on him. Still love him to death though, so active, always got something goin on in his cage lol.
Might go pick up some thick gloves today, if i do ill get some pics for you for sure.

i dont with argus monitors but i do with others. plus i have alot of knowladge on argus's. they do like to bite as a hatchling but who could blame it. you are big and it is tiny and thinks you are going to eat it. id bite you too. lol gloves are a definate must. i love miine. plus i would feed on tongs that way it associates the tongs with food and not just everytime you come near him.
