Horned Lizard

Strsmnky Apr 04, 2006 03:25 PM

I currently aquired a Phrynosoma modestum (Round-tail horned lizard) and I was wondering other than ants and beetle when larger, what would be a great temporary source of food, until proper accommodations can be made?

Does anyone have any experience with these?

Thanks

wow, lucky. basicaly all i know is that they are very hard to keep in caprivity, partially because they don't eat crix and just don't live long. good luck.

hi, i just read an aricle about these in a magizine and it said they can eat up to 2,000 ants a day, and the ants muct be from Australia. don't know how you are going to take care of this animal.
