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.

What arboreal lizards can I get?
I am very experienced with exotic animals and have many, so my ability to care for whatever animal I get won't be a problem.
I am looking for a medium sized arboreal lizard, but can't really find a species that fits what I am looking for. I love tree monitors and am looking for something around their size, but that doesn't need as large of a cage (since they need 6x4x3' about and my tegu already has a lot of space taken up). Also tree monitors are apparently very fragile and can die easily, so perhaps something slightly less fragile.
What are some arboreal species (bigger than geckos) around 2-3 feet that would make good pets? Even though I don't have room for a huge cage I am putting up branches all around one of the living room walls for one of my parrots to stay on through the day so my lizard could also climb around and hang out on that instead of being locked up. I'm looking for ones that don't mind being handled since I would like to have him out and climbing around most of the time and getting attention.
I'd really appreciate any suggestions!

Monkey tailed skinks are a good option if you can find them, although they can be a bit pricey. They're well behaved for the most part as well.

Mellers chameleons get pretty huge bout your range. But doesnt fit the handeling scene, Tree monitors are awesome but do need the cage space. I would prob end getting the monkey tailed skink they are just so awesome, or get a pair and get some live birth which is always fun walking in to finding a baby in the cage. Every once in awhile you will see them at shows.

look into getting a frilled dragon, they dont get big, are easy to tame, and love to hang out on branches. Plus they are pretty easy to find, even cbb are starting to pop up.

Which would do well in a 72 inch tall, 28 inch wide, and 14 inch deep cage??? I love prehensile tailed skinks by the way, but at the moment I'm looking for something a little cheaper since I am just purchasing a Tegu as well lol. Something no more than $300.
