I've had my blue spinies over a week now, and they are great display lizards. I don't attempt to hold them, they seem too wired for that, but when they are out they climb, bask, head-bob, chase bugs, crawl upside down on the screen, spaz out every once in awhile, etc.

My enclosure originally had a large, hollow rock in the middle. While that was in there, the lizards spent most of the time hiding underneath it. When I replaced it with a cork bark tube, the lizards decided it was OK to spend the day basking out in the open. I'll stick with this setup for awhile.
