Hey guys,

I was up to about 30 herps also back in high school, and when I get out, I too will go herp crazy. In addition to what I have now, I used to keep

1.2 Mojave Collared Lizards
0.1 Leopard Lizard
1.1 Chuckwallas
2.1 Desert iguanas
1.2 Desert Horned Lizards
1.1 Desert Spiny Lizards
0.1.2 Zebra-Tail Lizards
0.1 Long-tailed Brush lizard
1.0 Bearded dragon

As you can see, I really enjoy native desert lizards. I just don't have the time to keep up with them right now. the reason I don't have most of the larger species is actually quite sad. I kept them all in a 12'x6'x2' pen with my Desert Tortoise. The Tortoise liked to dig burrows, which the lizards hibernated in, and one day after a rain, the burrow had caved in leaving all the lizards with a plan of escape. I guess the good thing about it is they only had about two miles to go to find their old homes. heh. Live and learn. Thought I'd share.
Hope to talk soon,

-Phil
