Over the weekend, I went on a little trip (Up north) and picked up 10 of these amazingly coloured lizards. People really wouldn't believe their colouration, they're definately one of the nicest lizards I've ever seen, and are extremely rare in UK collections. All that goes against them is any movement and they're gone from sight, so when I can get a picture of one, I'll post it up. Until then here are a couple of pictures taken in the wild (The colouration of my group is far more vivid than that of these 2, as you will soon see).

Shropshire Exotics got them from the same supplier as I did! Apparently no more in the UK now, other than what was sold from the group! It's a shame that they are skitty even without getting close to the vivarium, but they're still great!! I'm always happy to have something different!  |

Strange is a good way of describing them, but definitely a interesting breeding project! |

I would imagine so. How big is an adult? _________________ Man made beer, God made cannabis. Who do you trust? |
