- Today, I walk you through my collared lizard setup. We talk about enclosure size, heating, lighting, and of course, the lizards themselves. This is a basic collared lizard care guide, but I do not discuss a number of important topics, namely feeding, hydration, brumation, cohabitation, and breeding.

For those who are curious...
I mention in this video that visible light might have a role in the repair UV-induced DNA damage. I didn't go into detail about this because it is something I am still researching. The purported mechanism would depend on enzymes called photolyases (Wikipedia entry: en.wikipedia.o... ) which are active in many organisms from bacteria to koalas, but I do not yet know whether they function in reptiles. Expect to hear me talking more about this at some point in the future!

Wow the breakdown of the importance of different lights was brilliant!
Glad you liked it! 😁 Funny as this is the first time I’ve ever made an informational video without a script, people seemed to like it I think!
Im a long time Collared lizard keeper. And resident of the Sonoran Desert Arizona. Your lighting is good. The only problem with your enclosure is your basking area. That slate stone u have will make a better basking spot. Collareds in the wild bask on big rocks/boulders that they can look over their territory. Watching out for prey and intruders. But cool video about my favorite lizards.
Are Collared Lizards cheap to get and easy to keep as a whole?
I live in a relatively cold area at seasons and i was wondering if you could do a video dedicated to night heating and controlling that/set ups for that
It's cold where I live too and my house is always freezing.
I use ceramic heat emmitters connected to a pulse thermostat for most of mine and works great.
You can even get day/night thermostats aswell so you can set the ceramic to heat up a bit at night when your basking lights etc are off so the temps are always good:) there a bit more pricey but defo worth it:)
As always great information presented very well. The Collared Lizards are pretty cool looking! And one of the few (in my opinion) interesting lizards from here in the US. Thanks JTB.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! I think you have many very interesting lizards in the US - a lot more than the three we have in England!
Wonderful, congrats on the new additions Joe! My younger brother will be very envious when I recommend he watches this video, Collared Lizards are a species he aspires to keep one day :)
Thank you! They are lovely lizards, I’ve been wanting them myself for some years!
This is a great enclosure; I could see this setup for bearded dragons, leopard/fat tail geckos, lacertas, uromastyx and even maybe snakes. It's naturalistic meets modern in a way, lol
Their faces are just adorable. They look quite interested and entertained in their enclosure which is always fun to watch. The little poop cameo increased the quality of this video by ten folds 😂. Can't wait to see Char's new enclosure.
I truly enjoy watching your video. You are full of knowledge when it comes to reptiles.
I knew I had to come to your channel to get the most out of my research on this lizard. Not even planning on buying one though. Just curious since they're becoming more popular around here
They are so gorgeous
Thanks, I agree!
Congrats on the new additions. Very nice!
Thanks Lori!
Great new additions to the JTB family :-)
Thanks Dave!
More collared lizard content please! Not enough content creators cover them as well as you do.
These are beautiful lizards, I heard hardly anyone breeds them in the UK.
They aren’t that hard to find, quite a few must be breeding them I think. Thanks for watching 🙂
Beautiful animals!
Thanks, I love them!
Awesome content, brilliant care
This is a very informative video!
Glad you found it so! Thanks for watching 😁
We have them here in the Missouri Ozarks in suitable cedar glades.
Oh wow, I didn’t realise they lived that far east!
@@JTBReptiles not as many as there used to be ☹️
Much can be said for the reptiles of Britain... Once here in number, not any longer 😞
@@JTBReptiles Sigh...
Loving the new hair Dude
This is my old hair, uni and covid got in the way of haircuts 😜
Luv the vids ❤️
Thank you!
Hey J, great video. Congrats on getting your new guys home and set up. They have cross looking faces but seem to be pretty happy in there new environment. Look forward to seeing more of them in your content. The colouration of the male is particularly attractive. Did you name them or were those names Roman gave them. Looking forward to seeing Chars new setup. Stay safe and well :0)
Thanks! They do have rather grumpy expressions but delightful attitudes - it adds to their character, I think!
I named them - “Caesar” and “Minerva” are names after Roman (geddit?), and Muffin is called “Muffin” because she’s the cute dumpy one of the group haha
Thanks for watching!
Wow, new additions, congrats, Joe, what kind of LED would be suitable for them?
Thanks 🙂 For background illumination I use a linear LED. You can use pretty much anything for this but go for what offers the most lumens per Watt. The Jungle Dawn LED bar is good but expensive; a linear LED by V-tech is also good. For the basking site more intense visible light is required, so a spot LED is what you want. The ones I use are by MILYN, but you can get ones branded for reptiles sold by Reptile Systems and Arcadia. 👍
Are you breeding these if so then when or where will they be available and if not then do you know where I can find some ?
I knew it!!
😉
So where is you ther mast at probe at??? And the fans are they on all the time???
Are the fans connected to the dimming thermostat?
You keep them under lock and key
May I ask, where do you recommend buying collared lizards in the US, and how did you get yours? I'm looking for 200$ or less.
Hey Man what’s the bedding?
One if them lost their tail?
Yes, a long time before I got it
Where can i buy collared lizard
Collared lizards look like beardies just rainbow and without the beard-
Do you stagger your lights off at night in the same order that they come on?
Yep!
@@JTBReptiles Interesting idea, if you weren't using the intense LED spot would you just have your basking bulb and LED bar come on first and then UVB an hour or so later?
What's the uvi index in the cl viv
5-6 at the basking site 👍
Okay just asking.
No problem! 🙂
