    Trio of babies

    Kevin, they all look good, and in a nice terrarium, you use only topsoil as a base, right? It looks like it might be easier to keep clean and tidy, I bought a 4' X 2' X 15.5" and use topsoil and sand mix in Spots cage, my adult male, and when he digs it goes everywhere. When they hibernate what...

    Trio of babies

    Looking nice and green Kevin. I been trying a lot of things for them to eat, but their main diet is crickets and med. superworms. The first time I gave them the worms they went crazy for them, but the last time they were not really to interested in them. I have a small colony of dubia roaches...

    Trio of babies

    Larry, Moe, and Curly, no thats not their names, I want to wait to name them after they are sexed. Note the one that has two tails growing, it got cut somehow a few weeks ago but not all the way, so it did not come off but it seems another tail started to grow as well. I don't know how it got...

    B. Dubia colony...?

    I just bought 100 on Craigslist and my Jeweled Lacerta loves them. I work in a restaurant and get the large egg crates, I cut them in half then hot glue gun them together then put them in the plastic tub vertically as one unit, then the poo drops to the bottom. I also place another half crate on...

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    The babies have arrived, and they look and act great. Two are two weeks old and the little guy is one week old, the one week old is from a different clutch. They ate and drank water right away and are not as shy as I thought they would have been.,I was able to touch the little guy, but not hold...

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    I talked to Linda and ordered 3 for Thurs. delivery. She is a very nice lady and even lowered the price to $75 each + shipping, which I think is a great price for such a hard lizard to find. Spot sitting pretty!

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    Is the breeder you talked about named Alex from San Francisco. I inquired about a listing I saw on Kingsnake.com for Baby Black Jeweled Lacertas but it said nothing about them being Melanistic. When the regular green and blue lacertas eggs hatch are the babies black or is this the Melanistic...

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    Yes please keep me informed, I really appreciate it. The Jeweled Lacerta is the size I like, and they look like mini tegus, I was thinking about getting a Blue Tegu but but I don't want such a huge cage in my house. I used to have a six foot long Green Iguana in a huge cage but got rid of him...

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    The wall lizards look very nice, but a little to small for my preference. Maybe I might would like to get some down the road but right know I got my interest on the Jeweled Lacertas. Thanks, Mark

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    Were the Wall Lizards the ones climbing the screen? They seem to have a similar appearance to the Jewels but smaller, are you able to handle them? Can you tell me a little about them: size, diet, temperament, availability, price, etc. I love the setup you got there also, see your setup really...

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    Thanks, I have been looking for awhile now and no luck, babies should be starting to hatch now, so if anyone is breeding them they might be selling them in the next couple of months. Thanks, Mark

    New Outdoor Cages for the Lacertas

    Are you breeding your Jeweled Lacertas, or know of anyone selling them? I am looking for a few more, I really like mine and can't find anyone selling them.
