Regal Horned Lizard?

[beardieman]

So my best friend really wants a regal horned lizard. For some reason he is obsessed with them. So i decided i was going to look into getting one (once i found info on what it takes to care for them). I want to get him one as his best man gift for being my best man at my wedding. I cant seem to find any breeders online. Do any of you know of anyone that breeds these lizards? I really need some help here. Thanks everyone.

Hope he love ants . . . lots of ants.

Make sure he has access to lots of ants. I think you can buy harvester ants.

I found some info here

There is a forum for them on kingsnake.com here http://forum.kingsnake.com/horned/index_a.html

I had no luck finding a breeder so I'm guessing most if not all that will be available will be wild caught. Good luck on your search

THe most common you will find for sale is the Desert horned, I love them too and think they are the coolest critter to have.

You should be able to find a few for sale but they will sell out soon, they are usually only avaliable in the summer months.

ive never bought any from this guy but he has some for sale for a good price.

Mark M. Lucas is a pretty good source to buy from. He's also very straightforward with what you're buying. Read the terms. I'd buy from him without hesitation if he had something I wanted and couldn't get from a breeder.
