LONGTAIL GRASS LIZARD

Energetic and Fun to Wach
The Asian grass lizard, six-striped long-tailed lizard, or long-tailed grass lizard (Takydromus sexlineatus) is an arboreal, diurnal species of lizard. The tail length is usually over three times the body (snout to vent) length in this species.

Males and females are similar, males being distinguishable by the presence of pre-anal pores. On average they grow to around 8cm (snout-to-vent length), with the addition of a distinctive long tail. Some individuals may have small circular spots on the sides of the bodies.

Like geckos they can drop their tail and grow a new one when attacked.

In captivity, they are quite docile and may be kept in large community terrariums. They are energetic lizards and are very fun to watch. They enjoy climbing and they should be provided with plenty of things to climb as well as higher areas on which to bask. The tails are indeed long; in fact, some Long Tailed Grass Lizards have tails that are longer than their bodies are.
