Painted Agama – CB Juvenile Appearance and Behavior
Painted Agama – CB Juvenile lizards are often grey or brown, but they can display various color combinations. They are sometimes called rainbow lizards because dominant males change their color to show off and attract females. Their bodies often turn blue, and their heads turn red or yellow when males want to assert their dominance.
The subordinate males and females have olive-green heads. Male and female agama lizards have a white underbelly and a light-colored stripe down the middle of their tail. They also have dark patches of skin on either side of the stripe. These lizards have external ear openings and eyelids, as well as incisors and cheek teeth.
Agama lizards are mild-mannered and docile. Males will defend their territory and bob their heads if they feel threatened, and they will also change color in an attempt to scare away potential predators. Males use their tails for protection and charge with their mouths open.
Size and Lifespan
The Painted Agama – CB Juvenile lizard’s average size is between 5 to 12 inches long. Unlike other lizards, they don’t have prominent dewlaps or crests. Much of their length comes from their tail, which is long compared to its body length. The male is, on average, 3 to 5 inches longer than the female agama lizard.
Enclosure size
The number of lizards you have dictates how large the enclosure should be. An aquarium is an excellent way to keep your agama lizards contained if they are in a small group. The enclosure should be at least 48x24x24 inches for a group of three lizards.
Lighting
Lizards are cold-blooded, so you will need to install a heat lamp. A basking lamp is a great choice, and you should choose a lamp with a red light that can be on all day. Agama lizards also need exposure to UVB rays. A 10% desert lamp is a good choice.
Temperature and Humidity
The enclosure temperature should stay constant, so make sure the enclosure is kept between 80 to 85 °F during the day and 74 to 78 °F at night. The basking area should stay at 95 °F. Using a heating pad will stabilize the temperature throughout the enclosure.
Humidity levels are important for agama lizards and should stay between 40°F and 60°F. Use a hygrometer to monitor humidity throughout the day.
