I've tamed iguanas, and our Uro mali seems to have been tame since we got him. Does anyone have opinions or experience on befriending an African Plated Lizard?

Second question: Clyde has been here over a week, and he seems to be adjusting and eating well. He loses a few scales every day; I can't see how he'd shed any differently, but I'm windering if this is the normal way for these guys to shed?

BTW, I don't see any bare spots, just a few scales lying about in his substrate or standing out at odd angle as if they're about to fall off.

Thanks.
