Here are some shots of my Bronchocela cristatella. She takes my breath away.

Awesome Kelly! I love these lizards. How much space do you give her?

One of many I found in Sabah, Borneo

She's been in a 4' LLL enclosure since she arrived in 2006. She was sent by accident - i was trying to get 1.1 C.versicolor for a client.

Nothing could do her any justice in captivity, but if fate softens up for me and im finally able to move, her living space is involved with my choice. There are rentals with atriums and thats my plan. I dont breed reptiles anymore or aquire any personal additions because of dependents like her that i have.

Thanks for looking and kind comments - I love photos of these guys in the wild. I would love seeing them in my garden like i have read people do over there. but i have also read the more robust C.versicolor has become an invasive over some of their range and impacted them sadly
