This is another beautiful photo. This really captures a playful side of the croc and the photographer. Is this baby a male or female/
Is his personality as developed as it seems in the photos? The photos present him as downright whimsical.
How old is he?
Now you've got me thinking of getting a CBB Croc baby. Like I don't have more than one girl can handle.

I don't think that you would ever regret getting a CB Croc! They are very interesting monitors and very intelligent. You can see their thoughts all the time. They even react to different sounds. They know who their owner is and actually show it. Mine will crawl up into my lap and lay there or make it's way onto my shoulders and head and rest there for quite some time. It is 6 ft right now and I got it from D&J Reptiles.They have very nice Crocs with bright yellow and nice patterns. One more thing, when I let her out she will always play in my dirty laundry and sit in the same places that I do. It is wierd to see it almost want to be where I am. She will crawl right up me when I get any where near her. They do still demand respect due to thier nervous nature and ability to cause serious injuries.

How old is that beauty?
And I'm wondering is she doeas a great deal of tail whipping and hissing?
Does she eat you out of house and home?
Does she chase your Dog and eat the cat?

I am the same guy! Just a different name. I wanted to tell you some more about her. She is almost 2 years old and grows like a weed. Seems to be the fastest growing monitor I have owned and I have had a few. She is great as far as temperment. I have never seen a tail whip from her, but she did hiss once when I got her out of her shipping box. Never since then. I feed her good and keep a very warm basking spot for her. I get rats and baby quail in bulk from Rodent Pro so it is pretty affordable to feed all my critters. I give her around 3 + or - medium rats a week. As you can see she is nice and healthy. I also throw some eggs and monitor mix in now and then to clean her out a bit. If you are not familiar with what I am talking about, I will tell you. Monitor mix= Ground turkey, bone meal and a 1/2 Centrum ground tablet. It is a mix the San Diego Zoo made up. I don't always give them this just now and then. Plus, the hard boiled eggs. She doesn't eat that much really compared to some monitors I have had, not at all! Watch your hands when feeding though. They know what food is and will do what it takes to get it. They are deffinetly a top predator! Very specialized and kill a rat very easily with those log sharp teeth. As far as eating the cat and chasing the dog. I don't have either. The dog in my one photo is an old girlfriend's dog. I miss that dog! It is good to hear from you again and look forward to more conversations. If you have any more questions please ask. Have fun and chat with you later!
