What do you want to know?

 

[rudukai13]

Size, care, enclosure requirements, temps, general personalities. Anything you can share I'm interested in.

And Most of that is useless generic dribble that is not true

I have read so much that is just spouted

I've used google, but for the most part all I'm finding is websites for zoos that tell you where the lizard's from but provide no information on their care. I'm asking here because I want to hear from someone who has successfully kept them in a personal collection or has heard directly from someone who has.

Here the best care sheet on the web http://www.agamainternational.com/pages/shinisaurus.html Dont forget this guys are very expensive, like 500 dollars each.

Well now Coura you can find them for roughly $250-$350ea when you buy more than 2 and the 3.

Coura, that website provides some information but still no specifics on temps, humidity, feeding, etc.
