Assistance finding Gerrhosauraus Major ( Sudan plated lizard )
Hi, I've been searching high and low for one of these guys, I'm hoping to buy one from a local store, since I'm lucky enough to have a store somewhat close buy that knows reptiles.
If they can't get one in for me, I'd like to be able to find one online, I've found them a few places, however from stores that don't have a very good reputation. I understand I will most likely not find a CB animal,
I think the only store I found G. Major in stock was at General Exotics, I've read bad things about them.
I'm in North Carolina if that helps at all.
I really appreciate the help, thanks.

We actually have some listed on our website as "Ornate Plated Lizards" - no pictures of the current group up yet, but that's what they are.
I have not heard of anyone in the States captive producing them, but they ARE super neat lizards, and I am extremely fond of them. We have Madagascar Plated Lizards too, which are pretty and also neat. :)
Hope that helps!

Yep, looked at them myself. The latin name isn't up there yet, but sudan plated and ornate plated are often used interchangeably as common names for the same lizard.
We do guarantee live arrival in temps above 35 degrees, so if your temps are above that they should honestly be okay even in winter. It's entirely up to you, but as a heads up we don't have very many, so they may not stay in stock for very long.
We also do a lot of east coast shows, so maybe we'll be in your neck of the woods sometime this year. :)

Hi,
We do not remove threads or posts as a matter of course - why do you think this one needs to be deleted? :confusd:
