Armadillo Lizard

Anyone heard of or owns an armadillo lizard?

Someone is giving me one, and I have no clue about them as far as taking care of them, if they are friendly, or even what size cage they need. Any info would be great.


Thanks.

They bite on their tail and roll themselves into a ball when threatened.

:OThey look wicked! Love it!:D

well, here's an update on my lizzard.

He's so awsome. He's kinda jumpy, but he doesn't bite (atleast hasn't yet) He comes out to eat at about noon time, and his skin feels like a dinosaur.........well, what i would expect one to feel like.
