Large Male C. vestigium

wwwwwells Mar 02, 2009 07:03 AM

Here's some recent pics of my male C. vestigium. It's been in the high 80s here and I've been able to get all my lizards out in the natural sun. Suppose to be 90 here today!!!

He is one beefy lizard!

The highest temps we've had so far are upper 70s-80. We had light freezes the past two nights. I'm thinking that next year, it might be best if I brumate mine over the end of December through the first part of March. That's really our winter.

Hey Will, I have seen how Eve gets her kids out for real sunlight. Can you show us your outside setup? Is it a converted rubbermaid, too?

Here's two types of sun cages I use. I made the sterilite boxes about 15 years ago and some of them have cracked so I have been replacing them with Reptariums. I have about 8 cages total and I will rotate pairs and trios out. I also have a perminant outdoor cage that is about 3'x3'x3'. I can use it this time of year but during mid summer it's too hot since they can't get too far under ground in it.

Man oh man that's one awesome lizard, he knows he's bad you can just tell that with his look. You are one very lucky guy to have such a beautiful collection of lizards.
