Week #13 Cordylus rhodesianus!

This week I'm bringing to you another Cordylus species that I recently acquired.  Being that I enjoy the Cordylus cataphractus a lot, I figured, why not add another Cordylus species to the collection.  This lizard is commonly known as the Rhodesian girdled lizard.  It has yellow checkered patches on it's back.  The male has a more vivid yellow coloration, while the female is a larger lizard.  These lizards are from Mozambique, Malawa, and Zimbabwe.  They live in between rocks.  They are relatively flat so that they can fit into tight spaces securely.  In the videos below, you can see the female eating crickets.  The male is a little more shy, but he normally is also an aggressive feeder.
