In a week time you would be able to say if this change mad any significant difference, I believe your lizards will be less shy and more out going, I don’t think they will turn into amevias but still more active.


I am presently raising about 48 babies of acanthosaura and gonocephalus, I keep 12 per cage and only one lizard per cage is not doing well, don’t know why?
But I know that I will not interfere, if a lizard has no will to live I will not force life in it, these usually don’t make good adults or breeders, and should you offer them to someone they are candidate for a bad herping experience, so I let them go, sometimes they turn over and start kicking butt.

Of all these and all my WC adults none have problems finding water, I love the water bowls you have, crickets don’t drown in them.

Now you have made a lot of changes, the best is to leave them settle inn.
Try to avoid handling them until they come to you, then you will enjoy them even more, because you will feel that they are interacting with you, not you with them.


Later if your satisfied with your lizards behaviour, you can do the entire wall with cork and silicone epiphytes on them, they last and look good, some even bloom colourful flowers.
