As for aquatic lizard: Australian Eastern Water Dragon. Beautiful and have great character fot interaction and handling. Even seen video's of people interacting with wild ones and even wild ones sitting on someone's lap. Armored lizard: Armadillo Girdled Lizard, although its more like a tiny Dinosaur thans a croc and as such it should be on your future Dinosaurs-like lizard list along with the Sungazer. :) Hope to get both of these one day. For now I am team Rankin's dragon, the cutest lizards that exist in my opinion. The white eyed crocodile skink I like, but as you will hardly ever see them and are not fit for handling they are not fit for me.
If someone magically discovered a 3-4 foot max American Alligator, it would be the absolute best pet reptile, docile, intelligent, long lived, and trainable.
@@WickensWickedReptiles no it wouldn't. Please don't encourage breeding them miniature. Their growth would be stunted & could come with a lot of health issues due to being smaller than normal. Look at pugs ( not the retro ) & munchkin cats. They aren't supposed to be like that. Not cool.
@@LVGmemphis10 caimans are bigger than that and are jerks. American Alligators are by far the nicest of all crocodilians. I have met adults that I am comfortable being around even without their mouths being tapped. I have heard stories of some that live amongst families like a dog and go swimming with the kids.

@@WickensWickedReptilesyo I got a good question I know you said we NEED a 125 gallon tank for a ball python Would a 40 gallon be good to start with for a young one ? 🤷♂️

If people are saying that you're advocating for poaching just because you talk about endangered species then they're just looking for something to upset them. Axolotls are very popular as a pet thanks to captive breeding but also critically endangered for example.
Hey Adam, Adam here. What about a video about Canadian lizards. As a child, i used to catch northern alligator lizards in victoria. They were pretty cool.
I’m mostly a chelonian keeper, but my wife loves crocodilians and always joked about wanting one. So I built my first bioactive enclosure and put a red eyed croc skink in it. It’s been an amazing addition to my collection. Super easy.
Crocodile skinks are the most coolest flippin lizards ever other than sailfins and Asian water monitors. Crocodile skinks look like little dragons and that's why i love them so much and wish I could have one
I have a crocodile gecko! After quick chatting and research on the spot I got him for 10 bucks. Got home and realized the person selling them to me gave me the wrong species name and had to redo all my research to make sure I gave him exactly what he needed, it was so hard trying to figure out what he actually needed without alot of good info on them. Happy to say though I've had him for a while now and he's thriving, its so much fun watching him eat! He's really not afraid of me just doesn't want to be touched, I can respect that
I'm happy he's thriving! What did the seller tell you it was? Did you ever let them know? (in case they planned on selling more) What's his name? I'm glad you were able to give him the home he needed to thrive. Many people would want to return the animal or sell it when they find out something like that (which I'm not really judging because I can understand how that must feel and the anxiety that may come with it), but you showed determination, dedication, love, and respect for it's life!
@@TheKatarinaGiselle i wanted to let them know but I never got a receipt and paid with cash, it was a smaller booth. It was irresponsible of me to buy from them but it was my second reptile expo, I wasn't able to tell the difference from wild caught booths and bred booths yet. They told me he was a white spot gecko, but definitely not 🤣 im really quite fond of him and I dont regret getting him, just regret not taking a business card or something. I named him spike, super typical and boring name but really he's just so cute I love him. Im not really someone who will return an animal unless its the best interest of me and the animal, like if I got something way over my head I'd want that reptile to still have a good life so id likely return an animal in that scenario. But his needs weren't too hard to adapt to + no contact to the seller, so I did keep him. I have however learned my lesson about a little impulse buy and to really make sure what im getting is what they're selling me. Plus finally figured out what stalls seem to be wild caught stalls and I stay away from them now too💕💕
@@WickensWickedReptiles hes super cool! I love watching him see me and know its time for food. Thanks for the video, it was cool seeing my little guy talked about by someone I trust when it comes to reptiles, its very reassuring! Take care!!
Ok, I have to admit my ❤ melted watching your shoulder buddy snuggle in and fall asleep! I don’t own any critters, but boy, your channel seems SUPER informative, and I’m learning a ton!
@@WickensWickedReptiles i mean it is alright but we dont have more rare reptiles/animals. We have beardies, skinks, ball pythons, more known turtles/tortoises and most known geckos/snakes. great is we dont have many wild-caught reptiles! But no crazy wicked morphs.
*Prize Pack 385!!* It's August 2nd...so I hope I get included and didn't just miss it! 😅 This is such a great list and they all look so cool!! Idk if I could pick a favorite, but WOW 🤩😍 the Mexican Alligator Lizard is STUNNING!! And yes, please make a video on reptiles that look like dinosaurs!!
Hey, I have gotten my first pet reptile which is a ball python and I’m gonna describe to you what the tank has and I wanna know is it’s right (the bp is 1 feet long) he is kept in a 30 gallon humidity is at 50-60 all of the time substrate is eco earth block thing and my heat for him is a heat lamp he has three hides a cold hide a dry hide and a warm dry hide. I have fake vines all around the tank, and he has ate two time so far hes active at night moves around sometimes during the day he drinks his water he soaked in the bowl a few times. So that’s it let me know your opinion plz. Oh and I have only had him for 3 weeks just so you know
I've been building an enclosure for 1 later down the road. DIY'd a waterfall (shallow and safe) feature. Can't wait to find a captive bred one near me (FL)!
Abronia are much more care intensive and complicated then you think i promise! They need very similar care to chameleons with high air flow and cooler temperatures! I run a discord that cares for them and has a lot of great information! If anyone is interested leave a comment and ill message you the link!
Down here in Southern California we have alligator lizards that look like little alligators but live on dry land and eat bugs instead of large animals. So far I don’t think their considered endangered, I see a lot of them around

Prize pack! Have been following and watching your videos for a while! Live your educational content and fair assessment of others and reptile keeping! 468
I'm trying to find some decently priced Sulawesi water skinks, or Grey's water skinks, Tropidophorus sp. so that i can put a breeding group together... I knew i should have gotten some last time I saw a bunch available!
Prize pack 248.Watching your videos is how I got so much more into reptile keeping,I now own a gecko a corn snake, I've had a praying mantis stick insects, I keep a load of different types of isopods for my bio active enclosures and I'm now building an enclosure to get a bearded dragon ,if I had the room in my home I would have loads more I would love to get some small frogs not sure what type but some that I can cohabitation with lezbians ..I'm obsessed with watching your videos and being a reptile mum 😂😊
I want a Cuviers dwarf caiman that does not grow bigger in mass than a bearded dragon or water dragon. I can dream right? ;) NERD is breeding Cuviers quite friendly. But they are still big enough to do lots of damage despite being smallest crocodilians. So you need to know what you are doing.
Prize pack 615. Great video! Got my dream species on here too. (Caiman lizard). Not in the cards for me sadly, so just have to enjoy the two they have at our local zoo
Hey Adam, I have a general reptile question.... I know you run your light cycles to summer and winter (i.e they are only longer in the summer etc) but do you run the heat the same way? So cooler through winter to encourage brumation?? No one ever seems to mention or recommend it's what would be happening if they were wild...???
It's a shame there aren't proper dwarf crocs, that stay a foot long or so that would be so amazingly cute. But yeah, crocodile skinks or alligator lizards are awesome.
Basically crocodilians are not pets my dude I swear Emily and Ed will always tell you crocodilians are not good pets they make horrible pets but then Rex such a baby then again you know Chandler and his Gators and whatnot but he's also got his share of injuries from them
Come on where is the dwarf caiman.close to size of caiman lizard id say similar difficulty, if you spend the time shouldn't in hospital. Think with captive and limited hande propoor training and a non spastic animal could work .
Thats just my opinion as a crocodilians fans , i think the "best"/most similar substitute to a caiman or gator etc is an asian water monitor , they are semi aquatic and can get very friendly (but not for everyone cause size etc) but they hubt in water aswell just like gators etc so very similar.
Ps. If otters can be kept as pets in the US i would have one because i love otters because they eat fish, swim, and they are like snakes but don't have forked tongues
Hey hey Adam, Cuban crocs are my favorite crocs ever. This list of lizards that look somewhat similar to them amazing and such an awesome list. Love it. I hope you and Trish have an awesome rest of the week.
It's bad how we have to have similar animals and not the one we want bc laws are met to no get there dreams done work for the government not enjoy more of what we like we should get a permit thats show we responsible
Do a video on semi aquatic lizards, that many people don’t know about. Such as Southern caiman lizard Cuban stream anole Potamites Crocodile tegu Merten’s monitor And other things like that
What is your fav "crocodile" pet?

Like a Cuviers dwarf caiman scaled down.
the alligator lizards in california

Do you have a video for best Australian reptiles as pets.
I can't get anything imported in Western Australia
Thats just my opinion as a crocodilians fans , i think the "best"/most similar substitute to a caiman or gator etc is an asian water monitor , they are semi aquatic and can get very friendly (but not for everyone cause size etc) but they hubt in water aswell just like gators etc so very similar.

Mexican alligator lizards are my bread n butter ! I love keeping them.
