Housing Your Lizard
Housing for your lizard depends on the its size and ability to move around. A terrarium is a type of set up that is suitable for your pet. Be sure that there is fresh water to drink and bathe in, a secure closure so that your lizard doesn't escape, good circulation to prevent humidity, and a piece of wood or vine that allows your lizard to climb and hide. While some lizards need full lighting for 10 to 12 hours, others are nocturnal. Animal World: Selecting & Caring for Your Lizard -
