I'm a lizard newbie, and need help! I bought my husband a T.P. for Valentine's Day and it seems that no one know's anything about them. The pet store names them a generic name of the Rainbow Rock Lizard, but even they stated that they know nothing about the breed. I would like to know if it is OK to use sand in their terriaum instead of carpet? Will the sand cause digestion problems in the future? I know that it does with other reps, but again there is very very little written about these things and I would like to know, so that he/she has a happy home. I have just heard to many different things, (everyone just trying to make a buck). Any info would be great...thanks.
i have never heard of them called Rainbow Rock Lizards, and that is why most herpers refer to animals by the Scientific name lol but here is a caresheet on them http://people.qualcomm.com/ntenny/tracheloptychus-care.html
Thank you for your assistance, that sheet also called them the Rainbow Rock Lizard, needless to say I had to find their Scientific on the internet in German. I tell ya, but thanks anyway, this will help us alot.
