Jman4117 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I've had this big guy around my house for a year or two now and I've finally been able to sneak up on him to take a pic.. https://img849.imageshack.us/img849/9232/p8235490b.jpg Rumor is that they bite, and are possibly poisonous, but I seriously doubt the latter. He normally lives in the garage on the concrete floor to stay away from the heat, but today he seems to be climbing up the side of my house.

Space Voyager Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 IT'S A TARKA INVADER, KILL!!! Ehm, sorry, lost it there for a sec. Cool looking guy. Or girl. It looks pretty well fed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Check the genitalia. CHECK THE GENITALIA. Ahem. That is a very cool semi-wild housepet. I take it it eats flies and other pests and is generally helpful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorondor Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 He's a bit of a couch potato isn't he? :: "Catching some rays here, man - do you mind getting out of my sun?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman4117 Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 https://img713.imageshack.us/img713/3743/pa125724b.jpg https://img850.imageshack.us/img850/7139/pa125725b.jpg https://img828.imageshack.us/img828/6013/pa125726b.jpg I finally got a pic of a component of my pest control system. He must have just hatched a couple of months ago. Tiny little guy, about 3-4cm long. The adults are about 10-15cm when they are all grown up. I think I found the ideal habitat for them: https://img832.imageshack.us/img832/9514/pa125707s.jpg https://img525.imageshack.us/img525/15/pa125708s.jpg https://img35.imageshack.us/img35/4489/pa125711s.jpg I never had so many of them out here until I had the sweet potatoes. It's like they breed in there or something. Probably hundreds of them when they peaked out in mid summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Cool, I always liked lizards of all sorts but there are very few of them in Slovenia. These new additions are not the same species as the one in the first pic, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veki Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 That little guy is cute. And I think that "guy" on the first picture is actually a gal and bottom pictures explain her look like a 'couch potato'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorondor Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 No wonder they stick around, they've just found their very own Amazon forest. :: Great for hunting as it offers good camouflage and doubles as a neat love shack for a nice get togetherrrr too...

Different species, the little guy is a green anole No wonder they stick around, they've just found their very own Amazon forest. :: Great for hunting as it offers good camouflage and doubles as a neat love shack for a nice get togetherrrr too... Yeah, they have a lot of cover in there. It doubles a weed barrier and lizard nest. And all they have to do is come up and get any bugs that want to munch on the foliage.

They change color based on stress levels. This guy is perfectly green and happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
