Western fence lizard, Ive kept them before and get them here too. The only problem is they tend not to eat in captivity.
 
ow big do they get
 
sweet thanks
 
ya he is big
 
Blue bellies or Western fence swift (Sceloporus occidentalis) get from 6-8" total length. Try 1/4" crickets, they do need calcium supplemants and sun lamps. Wild ones usually carry ticks in there neck folds and earholes, they are small shiny red bugs that can be removed with forceps.
 
thanks for that info guppy ill check
