Gillens Pygmy Mulga Monitor

The Gillens Pygmy Mulga Monitor (Varanus gilleni) is one of Australia’s smallest monitor lizard species, known for its active nature, climbing ability, and curious temperament. Reaching a size of just 30–40 cm, these compact monitors are perfect for reptile keepers seeking a unique and manageable species with fascinating behaviours.

Native to arid central and northern Australia, Gillens Monitors thrive in enclosures that offer vertical space, basking areas, and hiding spots. They are fast and alert, requiring a secure, well-designed habitat. A warm, dry environment with proper UVB lighting and a thermal gradient is essential for their health and activity.

Their diet mainly consists of live insects such as crickets, woodies, and roaches, with occasional pinky mice or quail eggs offered as variety for adults. These lizards benefit from an enriched environment and regular interaction to remain stimulated and healthy.

All Gillens Monitors we offer are captive bred in Australia, well-started, and feeding confidently. Our team can assist with choosing the right enclosure, heating, substrate, and feeding plan to suit your home setup.
