I heard a story about this happening but the eggs didn't hatch. They were probably infertile eggs just as if she had not been with a male. I have a leopard lizard and I have thought about giving it a try.

Hey Will,
I have heard the same story, I''l bet from the same guy.

I had a male vestigium, years ago, that was housed with a pair of chucks. One day, I found the baja trying to breed with the female chuck! He was biting her on the chunk of skin behind the ear, but he couldn't even come close to locking vents. She was just scooting around with him riding on her back. She didn't even seem to notice. It was really funny to see. I wish I had taken a picture. Making collawallas.

Leopard lizards eat other lizards, so make sure the collared is too big to be eaten!

collared lizards also eat other lizards right?
