You never know, it could be an itty bitty baby in one of those HUGE saltwater tanks.

Re: OMG I GOT A KOMODO DRAGON! (Varanus komodoensis)

I'm a little worried, guys... He wasn't interested in breakfast this morning. I know I should wait two weeks for him to settle in before I worry, but sometimes I can't help it.

Try scenting with some deer. Also it is mating season, that could be throwing him off

No... No... you won't get him to eat that way, what you need is water buffalo scented crickets, not deer scented ones.

Re: OMG I GOT A KOMODO DRAGON! (Varanus komodoensis)

So I had a lady at work tell me she bought he son a baby komodo at a reptile expo in Salisbury Ontario.check there. What's really great is they were only three inches long! So that tank will work for awhile.

Re: OMG I GOT A KOMODO DRAGON! (Varanus komodoensis)

Oh no! I don't know if I can GET water buffalo! A person on the road to my friend's house breeds bison, though. Could I take the crickets and rub them on the bison?

Re: OMG I GOT A KOMODO DRAGON! (Varanus komodoensis)

You could give bison a go... don't know if it would go down to well as American Bisons are not native to Komodo or Rinca.

Failing that you could try a goat as there's goats in Rinca and komodo to scent the crickets. I really hope you get the little guy eating then we can breed him with Gregg's ackies when his up to size.

I bags the first pair...

Re: OMG I GOT A KOMODO DRAGON! (Varanus komodoensis)

No.. it has to be from the goatee of the goat. That's what the komodos prefer.

It's cold and raining, I'm not going out again. Plus, I'm sick.
