i used to catch fence lizards all of the time when i lived in northern cali, one of my buddies also likes fence lizards but hasnt seen the pink bellied ones. does anyone have pics of these they could share so i could show my buddy? i searched online and couldnt find any, at least not any of their bellies.
i used to catch the blue bellies myself, never had the luck of finding a rose belly.

You will not find a “Rose Belly” here in N Cali. I live here and have herped many many years here and no Rose Bellys, I believe you are referring to Rose Belly Swifts "Sceloporus variabilis". Its range dose not come into California. It extends from sc. Texas to Costa Rica

they didnt look lie kthat one.. they looked just liekthe blue bellied fence lizards except they had a big pink circle on each side of their belly outlined i nanother color... i think it may have been purple or a darker red.

I would like to see some pictures if posable. I have hunted all over N. Cali and SW. Nevada for the better part of the past 15 years "Fence lizards being my fave to hunt" and have yet to see any reds or pinks like that. Only blue "light and dark" and the ocasional green heu and black.
