Question. I note you have a Nile Monitor there. Tell me, are they as nasty as the caresheets make them out to be? I have a chance of picking up a baby but need to do the homework firstly. I do already have an Argus, a White Throat and an Asian Water. Any advise appreciated? I should point out that I think it is an Ornate with 7 bands on the body. Cheers |

Ornates have 5 bands between front and back shoulders and pink tongue
Commons have 7 bands between front and back shoulders and blueish/black tongue and this has came from some1 i know personally,and had the pleisure to drink tea with,who has spent more time researching monitors in their own habitat than any1 else i know of. Hope this helps |

Well if he darkens out there is always, a tan shoe polish I could use. I have seen roughies too which have been the darker variety.
