Some more info. Was bred from a group consisting of 2 males and 3 females. Unfortunatley I do not have the DNA results so I cannot give more than a guess to whom the exact parents of this one was. LOL!

Ps. It's Nasicornis not Narcosis :lol:

Sand is cool for an Ackie, newspaper can be boring. They are desert dweling animals so sand is cool, and they have amazing digestive systems that can digest sand and not get impaction like other lizards. Im sure he will appreciate the sand for burrowing.

when he gets to size feed him a pinky, really awesome watching them eat, so prehistoric=)
