    as a kid living in Arizona I found a baby Chuckawalla (what everyone I knew called them). He was the sweetest little guy and stayed that way into adulthood. One interesting thing about them, when scared they will find a crevice and a inflate so you can't remove them. Native Americans hunted them for food and carried a sharpened stick to poke and deflate them.

    Hey Adam, I've been watching your videos for just under a year now. Thank you for making such helpful and educational videos, as well as fun ones! I had a video idea. I am not sure how good this will be, but maybe a video called something like "reptiles your parents wont be scared of". A lot of people want reptiles but they have family members who are scared of snakes and other things. Maybe a video of reptiles/amphibians that are undeniably cute would help people convince their family to stop fearing reptiles.

    Sorry, I forgot to add, Ive been waiting for your new vid to pop up just to ask this question: Do you breed feeder insects? I was thinking you could perhaps do a feeder breeding care tutorial when you have time. Like dubias, crickets, mealworms, superworms etc. The first 3 especially. Id suggest do them seperately and if the first one goes well, commence with the others. Only if you actually breed your own, and have the time of course! :)

    So that's my _"reptile species I cant believe I didn't know about"_ contribution.

    "Green Keel Bellied Lizard" yes it is a mouthful I was fortunate enough to get one. His name is Mr. Bo'beeni and he is AMAZING. No, not really good for handling, I mean I let him do his thing inside the enclosure...They are very fast!! And they are in the gecko family. Cool thing is...they are so curious that fear is quite limited. When I first got mine he was so fascinated with me and everything else that he never really was skittish....Also if you go bio active....they will pull all the leaves off your plants to make their own little bedding on the floor of the enclosure no matter if you have loose substrate or not. They also do NOT recognize standing water so misting is a definite and to be small they really do eat A LOT!!! Sadly there isn't much info on these little guys...They are easy to keep...I hope they gain more popularity soon as the few African rain forests they inhabit are about to be destroyed due to agriculture...so sad. With that said they are pretty funny and pretty awesome pets!!! Thanx for putting the word out about them

However, I thought $499 was pretty steep. I actually really liked it. Pretty drab, though. If you're into a unique color or pattern, this isn't it. Lol

    I have a question. I used to have a Bearded Dragon. Loved him, but he ate me out of house and home and tended to poop all over the place. Do Painted Agamas eat a little less and are they messier or less messy than Bearded Dragons? Also looked at Spiderman Agamas also. Are there medium to large size lizards that you consider easier to clean up after and harder to clean up after? I've also looked at Australian Water Dragons, Jeweled Lacertas, Chuckwallas, Desert Iguanas, and Yucatan Spiny Tail Iguanas (only get to 7-10 inches). Easier to clean, least smelly is better with my wife since this large showcase type enclosure I might have might be in the living room

    MIGHT BE UNPOPULAR OPINION: RE Chuckwalla: I know Morphs are a sensitive subject but, if done right could you imagine if the effort done to Bearded Dragons and Ball Pythons was placed into Chuckwallas? Now I need to look into what kind of Morphs a Chuckwalla will produce and do absolutely nothing with it but imagine the possibilities. I can't even produce a clutch of Peter's Banded African Sand Skinks. (Scincopus fasciatus) Yet...........

    Can you do a thing on painted agamas as there isn’t a lot about them available they are very skittish though

    I have two African red sided skinks but there is very little about them. I want to make a video of mine but I think you would do much better. They are fairly cool pets but a little on the shy end.
