    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

Hi there,

Any experienced Jeweled Lacerta keepers willing to give some tips/advice to someone a bit new to the species?

I'll be receiving a young subadult male tomorrow evening. I plan to set him up in a 24 x 18 x 18 bioactive for the first year, as he is pretty small right now. Then move him into a 36 x 18 x 18 later on. I plan to have his diet mostly consist of night crawlers, superworms, soft-bodied worms, Repashy Grub Pie, & grain-free canned dog food. I'll offer mango, dandelion, banana and other insects as well. I want to look into the Omni-gold diets too. Lots of variety.

Cage will be filled with hiding spots. I plan to use Reptisoil, which is a blend of soil, sand, carbon and peat moss, as a main substrate. Lots of cork bark, sandblasted grapevine, and live plants.

Anything I should revise/change?
