My long term female scarlet king died recently. I've had her for 8 years. She has produced many clutches for me. Now I have a lone male. I'll be looking for another female. She was adult when a student brought her to me and I've not changed anything in the way I kept her. I think maybe it was old age?

That's too bad Buddy....

I wonder what the longevity record in captivity for scarlet kings is? Who knows... But I'm sure she lived a good anole-filled life.

Here is a picture I got from you several years back... This may be her? I'm not exactly sure, but it's one of yours chowing down.
