I have observed these guys in the wild: they are big range, fast running lizards in the wild. A terrarium situation does not seem right for them. Julie B. Catriona Lindsay wrote: I have not kept collards myself, but from what I know about them is that collard lizards in the U.S. are

I had a pair for nearly 11 years; they are a little demanding. They need *a lot* of room [I had mine in a75 long), high heat with a slightly cooler end, and a variety of foods. Believe it or not, mine loved dandelion flowers. They also take crickets, smaller lizards and live pinks, if you can

I went last year, and while I won't argue about it being a good show, because it is, I would argue the responsible vendor part--though it's billed as a captive-bred only show, two of the biggest vendors (LLL Reptile and Reptile Depot) had a lot of wild-caught animals for sale. And, yes, I
