See another thing we have in common, one of my favorite lizards and the first reptile species I actually captive bred(1962)
Even if I did not have to do much, build a box with a lid, fill it with natural material, place the box outside is coastal SoCal, toss in lots of potatoe bugs( J crickets) lizards and grasshoppers. Their courting behavior of the male biting the female at the base of the head and dragging her around for days and how males combated, is most likely what started the monster that is I.(the ethology approach)
Another lesson was, I attempted to keep legless lizards in the same cage. You know cause I found them under the same boards. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm It worked out better for the Gator lizards. I did produce garders and ribbon snakes before that, but I cannot remember seeing them copulate. I most likely bought gravid snakes from the pet shop. I always picked the fattest individuals. hahahahaha I was in the fourth or fifth grade. Oddly I won a science award, my project was on centrifugal force.(fourth grade)
