I love my monitor. I stare at it for hours each day. Megan got it for me for Christmas. It's beauuuuuuutiful. It's a Samsung flat panel SyncMaster 931BW -19 inch wide screen trimmed in black. I highly recomend this type of monitor over any lizard that you have to clean up after and feed. In fact, if you have this type, you can have the best of both worlds by viewing photos posted online from you people that actually like cleaning up lizard poo daily.

that care sheet is not great. basking should be about 130F+ and a cool of around 78F.

some savs hit 5 feet. cages should be at least 6x3x4 with 1-2 feet of dirt. i usually go by twice as long as the lizard's length and as wide as the lizard's length.

rodents can lead to obesity and a fatty liver if basking spot temps are low.

feed any feeder insect, rodents, shrimp, crabs, fish, prawns, eggs, snails etc....
