can it be done? i've only read about snakes, can you hybridize a lizard with another lizard?

would i get the females to scent eachother the way i've read (by housing them together) or is there a diferent way to do it with lizards?

is creating a hybrid incredibly hard?

thats pretty much all i have to ask right now, thanx for the help!!!!!!

I would say it depends on the type of Lizard, however if you ware talking about Blue tongue skinks then it can be and has by many people. There have been reports of Easterns and Blotchies hybridizing with basically every other Australian BTS (including the stumpy). I know that personally one of my blotchies does mate with my Eastern female - however this years mating attempts seem to have failed. This is the first year my Male has Mated, which could very well be the reason for the unsuccessful mating, I only hope that next time more happens!
