So I found an Alligator(Northern) lizard the other day while walking the dogs.
I brought him home since he has lost his tail,I knew he was injured(plus he wasn't at all hard to catch)
So i am wondering,so they need some kind of heating lamp or a light? I haven't been able to find anything online.
I've only ever had Anoles (sp?) and I know they required a heat source.
But I have no idea about these little guys.
He seems pretty tamed though. he doesn't bite and I was able to touch him, I'm thinking someone's pet escaped.
I was hoping to let him heal and then perhaps let him go where I found him after he's all better.
Not sure if I should though,if he's already this tame. It might just be cause he's hurt,why he doesn't put up a fight.
