So i am thinking of getting a pair of Savigny's agama (Trapelus savignii). I can't seem to find much information around on the internet about caring for them. I currently keep beardies and was wondering do they require the same kind of care, if not what tips for care can anyone give me?

Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
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....

I keep mine pretty much the same as beardies. They like to bask around 95, with the cool end being around 73. I give them an inch-deep water bowl. They will take any prey, but will often regurgitate mealworms and superworms, so I stick to crickets and roaches.
The females can get pretty stressed when they're ready to lay eggs. The glass seems to make them a bit nuts. I put paper over 3 sides of the cage and it helps quite a bit.
Their behavior is very similar to a beardie. They are out all day, and usually sleep out in the open rather than in a hide. Fairly easy to hold.
