    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Do these collards look liek they might breed?

Link

Your link isn't working. Can you post the pictures? I'm going to do a couple of searches and find out how to sex collareds.
 
Color

Well, as if you haven't figured it out, I'm no expert with Collared Lizards! I did run a couple of searches, and it would appear that the way Collareds are sexed is by color...males are bright colored, and females are tan or gray. The females should develop coral or orange colored spots during breeding season. The males will also have very bright colored beards, typically yellow or orange.
 
ok, so i for sure have 1 female, i was pretty sure she was. now i need a male, im not sure if the other is a male, hes not that bright colored.
 
OK, i caught a male!! hes slightly larger than the females(ill up pics later) and i got bit by 1000 ants and almost dislocated my shoulder in the process, oh and i scraped a big patch a skin off my arm, but i got him. now what do i need to do to set up the cage for mating? i have 2 females and one larger male, any help would be appreciated.

Okay, after some more searching and lots of reading...here's what I've managed to come up with. It looks like these guys have basically the same setup requirements as beardies.

They need a very large enclosure with a screen lid, sand substrate, something they can climb up onto to bask, UVB lighting and heat. Their ambient temps need to be 75-85 degrees, and basking temp needs to be 95-105.

They will also need lots of appropriately sized calcium dusted crickets and shed mealworms, and they will eat greens (like turnip and mustard greens), chopped veggies and fruits.

From what I read, an average clutch is 4-6 eggs, and have to be incubated...but I couldn't find very many particulars on that part of things. My best suggestion would be to run some searches on Google and Yahoo to see what else you can come up with...but at least you've got the basics to get you started.
