75-85 and any food not veggie based. Had him since he was a 12" hatchling. Males get 8-10ft

Pretty cool critter , Not something you like to think about when it's your live pet but they would make a cool mount. For that matter, I just googled pet taxidermy I see it's fairly common in other parts of the world.

Can you see his penis?

 

[Davy Crockett]

What you don't think of . Worse yet I was born with extra curiosity and judging by the way they walk instead of crawl like most lizards I will guess yes.

Back when he was younger and more spazzy youd see the red rockets once in a while if he was pissed.

You think you know someone on the internet then you find out he keeps an 80lb man eating reptile in his pool. At least his tail grows back if some asshat tries to crop it.

Didn't know you could have a pet Komodo in ND. Learn something new every day!

Not a komodo, theres lots of big species of monitors that get in that size range. Hes a sumatran water, they get up to 9 or 10 feet, but not as heavily built as komodos. Theres probly ten othe species of water monitors, and then the blackthroats from africa get heavier but not as long, the croc monitors get the longest but stay skinny live in trees and have a long prehensile tail.

these looooong-necked bastages really creep me out

- - - Updated - - -

snakes not at all - "standard" lizards not so much - but these 'combo-critters' make me nervous

 

[MSA]

And they got loooong forked snake tongues that never stop.

 

[guywhofishes]

the australian variety creeps me out most - not sure why

for me it's not a visual (tongue etc.) creepiness.... it's that "hey - watch that SOB" recognition (respect) of their unreal speed, agility and power - lightening fast, claws up the ying, and nasty bite

that's a gorgeous lizard you have - beautiful

Is mrs msa okay with these shenanigans?

 

[guywhofishes]

with that scenting tongue and brush-penetrating build you can't tell me they wouldn't hunt pheasants like a boss

would drop it when commanded or swallow the whole bird.

 

[guywhofishes]

I am thinking late season would be a no go

probably tolerates cold as well as my vizsla

Bird would be in the belly long before you knew he grabbed it. Hes tame, but not like a dog, more like a shitty house cat that tolerates you.

nope. just nope.

 

[tikkalover]

Does he shit in a litter box, or on the floor?

 

[MSA]

Shits in his 100 gallon water dish thats plumbed to a drain. I just drain and refill it when he takes a dump.
