Talking New Jeweled Lacerta babies...

Just got these guys the other day from Alex Rudyk. They're awesome little critters. I expected them to be skittish and shy. But they're actually very curious and active. I'm already wanting some more of them!

I have never seen baby jeweled lacerta before, those are cool little lizards.

They definitely have the right name.
I'm looking forward to more pictures.

Here's pics of the parents (and what these babies should look like when they grow up). The mother is the yellow one, the father is the green one.

I agree Matt. Very interactive animals that don't get huge, but big enough to be cool. And they seem to be pretty easy to care for. Here in the southern US they can even be housed outside year round. I'm really surprised that they aren't more popular.

I never heard of these before! What beautiful lizards!
How big do they get, and what size enclosure do they need?
How are their personalities and handleability compared to a bearded dragon?

They get about as big as a beardie...maybe a bit smaller. They're pretty tame if handled regularly. But if kept outside or not handled much, they're supposedly pretty skittish. They're very curious. Mine are constantly coming to the front of their enclosure to see what's going on in the room.

I really regret not getting some Grozny lacertas from Bert when I had the chance. Lacertas are amazing lizards, so much fun to watch.
