Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Help! Lizard Identification!
My husband brought home this lizard yesterday from a oil site here in Oklahoma! I am having trouble identifying him or her  I got some feedback from another forum and they were thinking her might be a fence lizard? I think he looks a little like a sage brush lizard. I really want to correctly identify him so we can properly care for him since my son decided that he wants to keep him. Please help! Thank you!

It does look like a fence lizard. Given you're in Oklahoma, prob eastern fence lizard. That's my best guess

I am just stumped on the pattern. I have not been able to find a single picture of a fence lizard with stripes down the body. :/

I think that given its in the genus Sceloporus, the care will be very similar. What part of OK are you in? The eastern fence lizard has a huge range across the state. Sagebrush is in genus Sceloporus as well.

I think that might be a prairie fence lizard, sceloporus consobrinus, but not sure.
Do you plan to set it up and keep it?

Definitely genus Sceloporus. I'm thinking Sceloporus cowlesi, a Southwestern fence, but we all agree it's a fence, so care should be fairly easy
That's a really nice find! Does it have any blue on the belly?
