Lizard s living environment, where do lizards live?

Lizards are small pets that belong to large sizes, and lizards used to live more in the wild. Nowadays, there are also many lizard lovers who take it home and give it the best and most appropriate care. If you also want to raise such a lizard pet, then you should first understand and learn, suitable environment for the lizard to grow, and then build a family breeding environment for it according to the requirements of the lizard's life, so that it can grow up happily and healthily.

Lizards in the wild live in a variety of environments, and can live underground, on the surface, or in tall vegetation, between deserts and islands. Most lizards prefer to be active during the day and can make loud noises. Lizards hunt by waiting or seeking.

There are also many lizards that are capable of self-cutting their tails, and the severed tails can be quickly twisted to distract predators, allowing them to escape.

Lizards are ectothermic animals, and the most important environmental factor for lizards is temperature, and the length of the day is also important for the growth of lizards. Most lizards are oviparous, and their eggs are laid in burrows, cracks in trees, rocks, or under leaf litter. Whereas, some lizards are ovoviviparous or viviparous.

To raise lizards at home, the first thing is to create an environment that is suitable for lizards to grow in. It is necessary to choose a terrarium and then provide a personalized feeding environment for different lizard species. At the same time, according to each person's preferences, they can arrange their favorite personalized settings without affecting them.

However, creating a relaxed and pleasant terrarium environment for the lizard is the ultimate goal.

In the process of raising a lizard, do not tease it casually, it is necessary to keep enough distance, because the lizard is a cold-blooded ectothermic animal, and it will attack its owner who often takes care of it at any time.

Lizards are very clean-loving pets, some breeds even excrete at fixed points, and because they are covered in scales, lizards do not have the same strong body odor as cats and dogs. In fact, if you can clean up their living environment regularly, a lizard should be a pet that has little to no smell. In general, an individual lizard in normal health will excrete every 2 to 3 days, so if you are a very clean person, it is best to be able to keep cleaning up the environment once a week.

And if you're like me and you're raising a lot of people, cleaning up the environment every week will be a scary amount of work, and if you're like me and have some tolerance for dirty environments, then I recommend that you do it half a week, that is, every half a month. If your environment uses bedding materials such as reptile sand, bark pellets, etc., you can use tweezers to remove lizard excrement along with the sticky bedding. At present, there is a kind of compressed paper pellet bedding on the market, which has very good water absorption, which will directly adsorb the excrement of the lizard, and it is more convenient to clean up.

If you use moisturizing bedding materials such as coir earth or sterile soil to maintain high humidity in your environment, I recommend replacing them every 2 to 3 months in addition to regular weekly cleaning to avoid bacteria and fungi that can harm your lizard's health. Arboreal lizards generally do not have a good habit of excreting at a fixed point, and often excreting at high places will also stain the walls or glass of the terrarium, which will not only have a peculiar smell but also affect the viewing

Lizards generally live near water sources in deserts and in very dry environments.

Earthworms generally live in moist soil.
