Yes mate as i said potential to grow 6 foot inc tail

4 foot is average but as we all know you get some

that are below and some that are above average. But my point is that

you can not sell a lizard like that to somebody telling them its a good

pet. It will be a good pet for somebody who knows what they are getting

them selves into and are prepaired to work with the bosc.

These can be very nasty as i know very well LOL. Can i ask what

temp your basking spot is please. I dont want an argument mate

just dont want another farmed bosc going to somebody

who dont know what they are doing there are so many of these

in rescues all over the country as shops tell people they are good pets

wont get bigger than 4ft very tame when the realitly is totally different. for eg these

lizards have a very powerful jaw and they have lock jaw so once they bite there is

no getting them off sometimes a bit of vinegar in the mouth works but not always

and if a big male bites you your prob gonna loose a finger from the bite never

mind the infections after from the germs in the mouth

I would suggest that you visit reptileforums.co.uk and advertise it on there

but you will need to lower the price mate as thats rather expensive.

If i can help you at all just pm me and ill do my best.

 

All the best with the sale and as i say if i can help at all just pm me

100% spot on advice there. Hopefully a good home can be arranged for it. Worked in reptile trade for few years and I know that who I worked for were selective about what they sold on to pet shops. Responsible shop owners shouldn't stock the larger herps. Always liked monitors but never had setup to keep them, altough we had a water monitor at work who was pushing 8ft and friendly. He was hatched after a gravid female was imported years ago. The female bit the boss wrist and severd all the blood vessels.

 

Price is a little hopeful, considering the setup will be too wee before christmas. Good luck in finding a home for it.
