I captured two more horned lizards today and one has a bad eye, it looks like there is a tick or something on it. Since I am taking pictures and releasing them back into the wild, should I treat anyone of these that I find? I also notice that they have some little orange mites on them which I know are pests. What is your best opinion, since I love these animals and hate to see them not in good shape, my inclination is to try and solve what ever is aligning them. Anyway 3 in two days on the road. They really seem like they have come out -- two females and a male. They are exceptional and big. If someone could help nme with posting to this web site, I have pictures of the terrain as well as the animals but I have yet to have posted a picture correctly. I think I'm at least average or better with a computer, but for some reason I just don't get it, even after reading the info. Seems like it doesn't want to upload, or if I do the url, then it won't open up. Thanks for your help and your goodly advice.............

Hey Reptoman,
If you want to email me the pics I'll post them for you. I am in AZ withh a crappy connection right now but will be home tomorrow. Sounds like you are really starting to find them!

as I think the more you do the more stressed they will be. Maybe just remove the tick from the eys but don't bother with the mites they will just get them again. Tom
