bought an African Plated Lizard from Petco, In Waterford CT.
They provided me with no information.

I havent found much information on the net about care for this little guy.

I've been feeding him crickets, occasionally pinkies, and I give him soft vegetables and fruits but he wont touch them.
I sprinkle Calicum and vitaman D3 on his food atleast twice a week.

If anyone has an african plated lizard and can tell me how they care for him/her, please let me know. either here or email me at anotherinnocentgirl@hotmail.com

I want to take the best care of my baby.

thanks,
Kate

I found the same problem, what you want to do it make sure you're providing them with UVB and adequate heat find out if it is sudan or madagascar ( sudan have orange sides and a bluish underbelly). Crickets are great , other than that tyhey like all sweet treats and vegitables, you will learn in time what they like and what they do not ( they are all unique) Mine likes Bananas and romain lettuce. I know they say not to use heat rocks but mine absolutely LOVE theirs.I've attached some URLs that will help , that have helped me , you can find all these on google if the links do not work
