first of all, i should mention that i live in New Zealand, where blue tongued lizards are alot easier to get since they are native to australia. A couple months ago i first met someone who owned a blue tongued lizard, and i have wanted one since. they are so soft, and the love snuggling on your neck inside your jacket. I was just wondering if someone could give me an absolute beginners guide to keeping a lizard? preferrably with instructions of how to create an enclosure and how to maintain a lizard. i have never owned a lizard before i understand i should pick something easier, but i was just wondering what i would need and how to maintain one. Also, what are tips i should know to keeping a lizard happy? thank you for the help.
p.s. what do i build the enclosure out of? some kinda transparent plastic/glass? where do i get dirt? etc etc. i just need a beginners guide to keeping a lizard and a beginners guide to building an enclosure. thank you for any help you give.
The tongues of blue tongue lizards are longer and bluer than I recall. Their faces were rounder (less pointy). The patterns on their bodies were not as dark, bold or colorful. They did not have yellow coloring before. My observations only. IDK when this change happened.
