Ctenotus, Cyclodomorphus and Lerista question

Just wondering what species in these groups are in captivity, i know there are a couple of Ctenotus. What species apart from C. gerrardii are in captivity from Cyclodomorphus and finally, any Lerista out there?

1 Occational breeder, I've been trying to get some myself. I kept one years ago, they are great skinks and easy to keep on their own but very aggressive.

With the skinks i think a few of them are on the legal feeder list, so you could just catch some and say they are for food for something. I cant find the list but there is one somewhere. Im fairly sure c.rubustus and garden skinks and those stripy wall skinks are on it.

Yeah i know what you mean, i was thinking of writing a letter to the CEO and asking for permsion to catch keep garden skinks and C.virgatus but never got round to it. Might be worth a shot since they are happy for them to be used as feeders, not to mention how many of thousand get mowed everday.

Also do you have the feeder skinks list?

I have Cyclodomorphous casuarinae but still too young to breed. There are a small number of C. melanops in the zoo system. I am not aware of any lerista. I have Ct, pantherinus, leonhardi, robusta, taeniolatus to name a few.
