For starters...and most importantly, a komodo can get up to 10 feet long and weigh up to 300lbs. and would have me and mine for lunch!

They are furocious hunters! They will bite their pray and hunt it down for 3 days until it dies of gangreen.

A beardie, on the other hand, only can grow up to 2 feet long! I can handle an omnivour that small!

They are really quite comical too. These are the lizards that can stand up on hind legs, puff out their 'beard' style scales and run!

They are alot of fun and the babies go for $60.00 apiece. Breedable adults go for $300 apiece in the exotic animal circles.

Freep mail me if you want any. Breeding season is about to start. With the cargo ships being held off shore....exotic animal imports aren't doing too well. Anyone with a love and art for breeding should look into this niche now.

ESPECIALLY aquarium hobbyst. I dare anyone to find chromides now. This is a fun, educational, lucrative market.

I really got upset when they claimed lizards had no feelings ;)

Reference 4479:

I had the distinct displeasure of meeting a very large monitor lizard type one day in the Phillipines a few years back.

I was riding a horse I had rented ( that only understood Tagalog) and it dumped me and ran off. I had to walk back.

Those guys are nasty.
