by the way, a 20 gal. is too small for most plated lizards

[unspecial]

get a small lizard species....like an anole, dont want them beeing too confined. I got my igg in a 3ftx4ftx8ft right now, my baby cwd in a 4x2x4, and my "teenage" cwd in a 60inx24inx20in. I duno, Im waiting till my dad actually LIKES the idea of lizards before going ALL out, as it is theres no space in my room for me, 3 cages, a bed, and a dresser! LOL. But seriously, dont just get something to fill the cage, I know you'd take care of it, but still

Indeed - we had to bump up to a 40Gal breeder for our plated. Simply one of the most tractable lizards I have come across.
