| Description: | As with any reptile, the environment has the biggest impact on health. A good enclosure and varied diet can prevent most common ailments. Common Health Issues: shedding issues usually arise from low humidity. Misting your monitor and his enclosure will help to loosen shed skin. You can also place them in a warm water bath. Internal parasites are common when feeding live foods. Get a fecal sample every 6 months to keep for parasites. Injuries can occur from fights if you keep other monitors, from enclosure decorations or from bacterial infections. Keep an eye particularly on the toes and the tip of the tail. Healthy Signs: a healthy mangrove monitor will be eager to eat and will spend a lot of time in water. They will have bright eyes and no problems shedding. |
