How many clutches/babies can one pair produce in a year? Sorry don't know as much as I should about varanids.
 
Usually its only one clutch if your lucky! and to get them to hatch is a big chore in its self!!! you should be very proud! this will be my first time working with trees and even though ive bred dwarf monitors, I really hope I get my prasinus and beccarii to breed by the end of the year.

Thats what I thought, just Wolfgang said he was expecting a second clutch, so didn't know how common that was (I know this species is difficult).

Thanks Derek

Hi Derek and Redtegu,

they lay two clutches a year, normally one in autumn and one in spring with usually 3-5 eggs.
A good way to synchronize the sexes is to simulate a dry season during winter, I do that from October to march, while keeping them humid for the rest of the year. In my experience the male starts to get interested in the female when it's getting dryer in autumn/moister in spring.

Regards
Wolfgang
