The first jeweled lacertas of the year are available now! I am raising babies from multiple unrelated clutches right now. I have a good variety available that are wild type (green and blue), melanistic (all black), wild type (het for melanistic and non het), and animals from my selectively bred high blue line (both males and females from this line have significantly more blue than typical wild types).
The Jeweled lacerta, also known as the Occelated or Eyed lizard, is a medium sized lizard native to southwestern Europe. If I were only able to keep and breed one species of lizard they would be it. They have so much going for them: hardy, active, prolific, not too big or small, colorful, interesting social behaviors, and intelligence. It’s hard for me to pick another lizard that has all of these positive attributes.
Available are unsexed juveniles from three different pairings. I produce both melanistic (all black) and the normal colored variety. I have a detailed article on their care and breeding published on my website as well as a video on my YouTube channel
Prices range from $150-250 depending on type. Price breaks on three or more possible. They can be purchased directly from my website here:
