The life span of lizards is relatively short, generally not more than 20 years. How long a lizard can live depends on the species, and the life span of different species of lizards varies greatly. The common "leopard gecko" can live about 8 years; the "dragon lizard" has a short life span, generally only about 5 years; and the "red taiga" has a long life span, 12-18 years. In addition, how long lizards can live is also related to the suitability of the environment. Generally, the more suitable the environment is and the fewer natural enemies there are, the longer their life span will be.
How long do lizards live and how old can they lay eggs?

1. How long

can a lizard live? A lizard is a reptile that can be raised as a pet. However, because they belong to reptiles, they are not advanced animals in terms of the process of animal evolution, and their life span is generally not particularly long. Generally speaking, the life span of lizards will not exceed 20 years, and the number of lizards that can live to more than 10 is relatively small.

Specifically, how long a lizard can live has a lot to do with the species, because there are many different species of lizards, and there is a very big difference between different species of lizards, the length of life is a very big difference. Common lizards, such as the "gecko leopard lizard", can generally live about 8 years, and the "dragon lizard" can only live about 5 years. Longer-lived lizards, such as the "Red Taiga", can live 12-18 years, and longer-lived individuals can live to about 20 years old. In addition, how long lizards can live is also related to the suitability of the surrounding environment and the number of natural enemies. If lizards live in an uncomfortable environment or in an environment with many natural enemies, they will live for a relatively short time.

2. How old can lizards lay eggs

? Lizards basically reproduce by laying eggs. When they reach the right age, they will mate and lay eggs, or lay eggs. As mentioned above, there are many different species of lizards, their life span is different, and when they can reproduce and lay eggs is also different, there are relatively large differences between different species. For example, the common leopard gecko lizard, which has been mentioned above, can lay eggs at about one year old. Some lizards take longer, such as the "New Galician Giant Gecko", which takes three or even five years to lay eggs. Other lizards are more precocious, such as the "high-crowned chameleon", which can breed and lay eggs in about half a year.

In addition, when the same species of lizards mature is not the same, there will be individual differences, but also depends on their specific development.
