I decided to put a lavender plant in the enclosure with my western fence lizards. They have been with the lavender for the past month with no signs of ill-effects. Prior to the decision I tried finding anything saying whether or not it is a good idea to put lavender in with them. Since the plant grows around where I collected them, I figured I would give it a try. So far they are doing great with it. They use the plant as a hide and are often seen perching on it.

I am also working on a rock wall for them. It needs one more coat before it is finished. I will make sure to post pics of it once done.

Here are the pictures of the setup right now:






-----
1.0.2 Desert Iguanas(Dipsosaurus dorsalis)
2.2.0 Western Fence Lizards(Sceloporus occidentalis)
1.0.0 Common Side-blotched Lizards(Uta stansburiana)
0.0.1 California Alligator Lizards(Elgaria multicarinata multicarinata)
0.0.1 Tarantula(WC)
