    Lizard Keepers

    Well,

    I do like Thamnophis sp and a couple other groups of small colubrids but I must say at heart I am a lizard lover. So I'm wondering who else on this forum likes them too!!! Here's a couple of the inhabitants that currently reside with me.

    Argentine tegu (Tupinambis merinae)



    Colombian Tegu (Tupinambis teguixin)



    A pair of Jeweled Lacertas (Timon Lepidus)



    2.2 Southern Alligator Lizards (Elgaria Multicarinata)



    along with those I also have an adult trio of Leopard geckos and varying amounts of their offspring. So what all do you have???

    Re: Lizard Keepers

    I have a few. They definately have a different character than snakes.







    I've kept many in the past, some have died of age, other's unfortunately when my learning curve was still pretty steep. Here's a recently lost guy that I miss.

    I have had many lizard species in the past, but none just now. My favourites (if I must choose) would be Varanids and Teiids.

    I've had anoles and skinks, but I don't have any lizards at the moment. If I ever get into lizards again, I'll be focusing on skinks or lacertids.

    I canīt get any permission to keep animals with legs from my wife but my favorite would be Uromastyx.

    Re: Lizard Keepers

    Don't keep as many lizards as I used to. Became allergic to insect droppings somewhere along the way...so got rid of all my insect cultures. I only have my one Blue tongue and my one leopard gecko yet.
