Two newts I've found in the yard. The top-most is more recent, and the orange one below is from last October. Both are Eastern Newts (Notophthalmus viridescens), and over on iNaturalist the orange one was identified down to subspecies Central Newt (N. viridescens ssp. louisianensis)

I'm eternally delighted by them and honored that they'd stop by my garden!

It's a master of camouflage

Was about 3 months old I think in this picture. Love the stretched out legs in this one!

Hoppshugo wishes you a nice day!

Here are a few my little dudes.

My bearded dragon. Her name is Giz. She’ll be a year old in July.

This is Oscar, my Chuckwalla. He was wild caught and his tail is a little damaged. I’ve had him about 2 years. I hate that he was from the wild though. I didn’t know his history until after I bought him. Sorry about the auto rotation. I don’t know how to fix that.

I’d love to see other folks’ lizards or what you have living natively in your corner of the world.

I'm new from Reddit so I'm still looking around the Lemmyverse. I hope more folks from the reptile forums there take a chance and migrate over here.

I have a bearded dragon that's about a year old. She's a champ. I've read that at some point, they shift to being mostly vegetarian with some bugs once in a while. I don't think she got the memo. She still vastly prefers bugs to salads. I guess I get her to eat a salad 1-2 times per week. But she chomps down on superworms and crickets. I'm raising dubias that I hope to shift to instead of crickets though. I figure I've got a few more months before the colony is ready for me to start getting feeders from it.

Anyway, when to beardies start to need less protein? How often does a mature bearded dragon need bugs? Thx!
