This is it.! . the sun has returned and our Chucks are entirely lovin' it!  . These are the Puerto Penasco, Mexico chuckwallas.. they stay out year-round but only become active again when the sun gets HOT and HEAVY.. The flowers are a favourite.. I suggest anyone wanting to keep these beautiful and friendly lizards long term with a focus on best health and reproduction look to supplying seasonal flowers.. these are Coreopsis.. .
 . .. I take my Isla Angel de la Guarda or Hispidus chucks inside for the coolest part of the year.. Here's me putting some of them back into their habitats.. .
 .
 . .. really great lizards. These adults are now twenty inches or more. .
 .
 . .. the Mexico chucks in general, and the Hispidus chucks especially really like the new growth on Opuntia cactus. .

.. here's one of last year's kids that stayed here. .
 . It's great to see these fascinating critters out and having so much fun! . Thanks.. have a great day! .
