those are insane looking! why are they that color, is it the type of rock they are around? and where did you find them? (dont worry im not gonna go strip out your hunting grounds, lol) its startling to see such odd coloration.

Here are some shots of a pair of chucks my friends and I caught and released a couple of years back. They were monsters, that's a large critter keeper they're in. Most of the chucks in the hills outside of Mojave and in Red Rock State Park look like these guys. I got Gracie from this same area, I hope she grows up to look like the big female. This pair was too busy with each other to take notice of us

Male

Hey buddy,

Honestly, I don't know of the Chucks you speak, although I am a bit colorblind, so if it was any of the Chucks I've posted pics of, The recent ones came from a local hillside here in Apple Valley. Godzilla came from LA county, a few miles away from Edwards AFB. funny story about him, he was being chased by a larger male who took off when he saw me. Godzilla saw me also, but the nearest cover was underneath a rock almost half his size. Bagged him with almost no incident. That area is great for Leopard Lizards also. A friend saw 15 on one dirt road. but yeah. Congrats on catching your Chucks. Good luck with them pal. Here's a pic of my outdoor pen when it was first built. 12'x6' with a 2'slope in the back

have fun!

-Phil
