Help on a Plated Lizard!!!
Howdy folks,
I just received an Ornate Plated Lizard from one of my friends. Unfortunately, my friend did not know how to give a proper home so I had to step in and alleviate the problem. Anyways, I have this lizard by the name of Wallace (love Braveheart!!!) sitting in a big 'ol 75 gallon aquarium with my savannah monitor. They get along fine...the ornate is bigger than the sav by a couple of inches. However, the Ornate has not eaten in the four weeks that I have had him. The previous owner said that the little doesn't eat a lot. I have tried various foods, crickets, bananas, apples, etc. but he doesn't seem to budge. He looks healthy though and is a pleasure to handle. Does anyone know if something is wrong with him or do Plated Lizards just not eat much?
Thanks in advance,
Ricky
P.S. I keep him on 100% top soil.
