Glad you found out what they are. Keep most of the cage dry, with damp areas under their hides and logs etc (so they can be damp when they want to) other wise they will develop respiratory infections very quickly. Have temps at around 90 under the basking end, and around 75-80 for the rest of the cage. They need UV lights, preferably with a UVB emmission of 5% at least. Fresh water all the time, feed about every other day with crickets and dust them with calcium and vits once a week (considering they are adults) They need lots of hiding places. You will need to separate the two green ones (males) asap otherwise they will kill each other once they are mature.

Good luck with them, they're fabulous lizards!
