A lot is going to depend on the current disposition of the Ackies themselves, from what I perceive by reading the advertisement, they are adults already, so you have already missed out on the chance of raising them to be accustomed to you as their caretaker.

Lizard leashes are rather cheap, so it would not hurt to try, They may already be completely adjusted to human interaction.

From what I gather on the monitor forums, the camp is divided there about handling just the same as it is with snakes, Some keepers say do not handle them, let them be monitors, if you want a dog, go get one.

And others will say that you should handle and interact with them every day (I take this side obviously) however it has been observed that monitors are rather social animals, and Chomper is a solitary captive, so we are his interaction

I am going to contact Frank Reets at Goanna ranch, he has some excellent photos of his MANY monitors interacting in great ways.
