Heres a pic of my old colony at dinner time, lota work when you have 34 adults.

yep had you hands ful duga, but wouldn't they fight? are they social?

 

[NoOne]

Yeah they were alot of work.
They never fight, great colony lizards, they don't pair for life like they apprently do in the wild, i used to see the same male going after 3 or 4 differnt females one after the other.

 

[westaussie]

yes I have never had any probs with males wanting to breed unknown females.

In the wild these animals will look for their previous partner (it makes sense,
if they have successfuly mated before) but he wont refuse if something else comes along.
Bobtails are not faithfull to a spouse.

Bobtails are not faithfull to a spouse.

They are such a human like lizard. And yours are the best west aussie. I especially loved the other one with more white in them as well.
