Hiya, I love the look of these and would buy them if I knew more about them. Are they a breeding pair?

Would you be able to PM me something about their basic care (temps, feeding, maybe what setup you use for them) or a link to a caresheet please? I have had other lizards but can't seem to find anything online for these little guys?

Sorry, I know it's a bit to ask but I don't want to buy anything I wouldn't be able to take care of and want to be sure. Thanks!

These guys are great and a good price too

The latin name is Cordylus tropidosternum they are more commonly known in the USA as the "Tropical Girdled Lizard". They need it HOT on the basking spot to thrive - up to 120F under basking, but an ambient of 80s, dropping down to 70s or so at night. Because they need it so hot you need a reasonable sized viv or you won't get a cool side. They will survive at lower temperatures but I think you need this for breeding. They come from Africa and are semi-arboreal. They don't live in trees, but they do climb the trunks and stick there.

They are great little breeders and are being captive bred now but only in small quantities, we really need to increase the breeding. They incubate the eggs inside them, and then the eggs hatch as soon as they are laid - literally sometimes within a few minutes, usually within a few hours so not livebearing, but no need for incubating. I forget the technical term for it.

Note that they will eat some greens and fruit. In the wild they live off termites and brightly coloured flowers, I forget the name of. Brightly coloured fruit attracts them and they may eat some greens. Obviously instead of termites they eat the general assortment of livefood in captivity.

That's off the top of my head - I know there isn't a lot of information on them out there but I have some myself and I did breed them successfully a few years back.

I recommend these little guys to anyone and visually they certainly look like a pair (the body shape is quite different from male/female so it's usually fairly easy to tell). They're also pretty hardy and shouldn't be affected by TNT.

Hope this helps
