Hello all!

I live near Houston Texas and am a full time Chuckwalla/ Desert Iguana keeper. I also have a few Yarrow spineys and a yard full of Blues. From my experience Blues seldom settle down enough to make good tank critters. I house my lizards in a 30 ft X 30 ft pen in the back yard. The blues were seemingly eating baby chucks & DIs so I moved em out & let some go in my rock garden out front. They make plenty of babies and all are spookey even after 5 yrs of hanging around. They are pretty as the dickens though! Its just you can't get close enough to see em. When the babies are born in May------ I'll check back or you guys check out the chuck forum and give me a shout---- I can rustle up a few for the US Mail.

The Yarrows are much more suited for living in tanks than Blues.



Heres a pic of one of my Yard Blues from last summer.



Regards



David
