How to raise a lizard and how to keep it winter

lz better talk about your lizard species.

In this way, food can be selected according to the habits and characteristics of different lizards.

Lizards do feed bread worms, some lizards are vegetarian, some lizards are omnivorous, and many monitor lizards are meat-eating.

If he eats bread worms, it should be an omnivorous lizard, which can be supplemented with calcium-rich fish, rats or something.

Ultraviolet rays are indispensable when raising lizards.

When raising indoors, it is not easy to sunbathe, and ultraviolet lamps or sun lamps can be used as lighting to supplement ultraviolet rays;

Food Small lizards can feed crickets. Newborn mice have the highest nutritional value if they can be swallowed. In addition, you can also feed insects, earthworms, spiders, etc. Only feed insects, it is easy to intake insufficient calcium and vitamins, and special nutritional additives should be added.

For medium to large lizards, rats of all sizes should be fed according to the size of the lizard. Rats** are insufficient.

, you can feed general meat, liver and other foods, but it is best to add special nutrients. You can also feed bread worms

Remove the bones and spines from small fish or flesh.

Plant-loving varieties such as skinks can be fed with leaves, pumpkins, fruits, etc., and special nutrients are added.

The cage is at least one side twice the length of the body. The cage used should be well ventilated to avoid being too stuffy and harmful to health.

Healthy. Other.

Although lizards need to sunbathe, tanning often causes the temperature inside the cage to be too high, and daily sunbathing can be harmful.

The best way to be healthy is to use sunlamps, ultraviolet lamps for lighting, and sunbathing occasionally.

Using solar lighting, from morning to night, about 12 hours a day, can achieve full effect. Ultraviolet.

The intensity of the lamp is much stronger than that of the sunlamp, and too strong ultraviolet rays can harm the animals, as well as sunburn and blindness.

10-20 minutes of irradiation per day is sufficient.

When using ultraviolet lamps, a spot in the cage should be arranged where the light does not shine, and only the lizard is happy.

Turn on the light when enjoying UV rays, and turn off the light when the lizard moves to a place where the light does not reach, indicating that the amount of light is sufficient.

Although the ultraviolet lamp has a good effect, the use method is more complicated, and it is best for novices to choose a sun lamp.

Halo This is divided into different types of which.

Some hibernate, some don't.

There are many varieties of lizards, and their living environments are very different, so it is impossible to say which species you want to refer to. A large proportion of lizards live in the tropics and subtropics, and if the ambient temperature is below 20 degrees, they basically die, and there is no hibernation. A small number of lizards native to temperate zones can hibernate, you can spread more sand and gravel and dry grass and dead leaves, and put them in a place where the indoor temperature is relatively stable (not in a place where the temperature of the air conditioner or heating changes drastically) and a quiet environment.

For example, water dragons or something, if you raise them at home, most of them are heated up, many of them have the same treatment as IG, but the fact is that the temperature in the wild is very low in winter and there is no place to warm it, and after the water dragon raised in Shanghai escaped, there are many examples of successfully wintering in the community garden, as for Liwen or something, in the store winter is not heated at all, and does not eat, although it sells fast, replaces quickly, but there are also many in the store for several weeks. Now we have a lot of experience in how to heat up and how to illuminate the light, but we lack the experience of domestic lizards in the winter at room temperature, and it seems that there is no preparation for the tenant to be willing to use his lizard simulates to do this potentially life-threatening experiment.

1. During the winter period of the lizard, the most important thing is to ensure that the temperature of the environment in which the lizard disturbs the winter is constant.

2. Breeders can install a 250-watt infrared bulb or a 100W air heater in the breeding box for raising lizards, and also need to prepare a heating pad for heating, and the breeder can choose the kind with UVB lamp.

3. In winter, don't force the lizard to eat too much, because the lizard's diet is affected by the temperature pattern, only when the ambient temperature reaches a certain level, the lizard will take the initiative to eat, but the ambient temperature is not up to standard, the lizard will refuse or stop eating. So while the lizard is hibernating, don't force the lizard to eat.

Lizards must prepare an incubator for lizards, lizards are cold-blooded animals that cannot regulate their own temperature, and when the temperature is too low, they need an incubator to help lizards keep warm. Keepers also need to prepare pine chips for the lizards as bedding, which are non-toxic to the lizards and easy to clean. Keepers also need to prepare a hygrometer and humidifier to adjust the humidity of the lizard's living environment.

To raise lizards, you must prepare an incubator for lizards, which are cold-blooded animals and cannot regulate their body temperature. The incubator can ensure that the body temperature of the lizard does not change too much when the temperature changes greatly, so as not to affect the health of the lizard.

Breeders need to prepare harmless bedding for lizards, not plastic bedding, which can easily lead to lizard allergies and death. Breeders need to prepare pine chips for the lizards, which are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also very easy to clean.

Lizards generally live in a humid environment, and keepers need to prepare a hygrometer and humidifier. Monitor the humidity in the lizard cage at all times and adjust the humidity in time.
