This CB26 Bosc monitor is a fantastic young individual already showing great promise. Currently very dinky, but full of confidence — tong feeding like an absolute champ and responding well to interaction.
At this age they can be a little flighty, which is completely normal, but with steady, calm interaction they build confidence quickly. Starting with a youngster like this gives you the perfect opportunity to establish trust and routine early on.
They are currently thriving in a spacious 5x2ft enclosure, making the most of the room to explore — something this species absolutely benefits from as they grow and develop.
