Males in particular develop impressive head ornamentation and can display rich turquoise and emerald tones, making them one of the more visually spectacular forest lizards available in the hobby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese lizards are best suited to an experienced keeper who can maintain the consistently high humidity and warm, stable temperatures that their tropical origins demand — they are sensitive to environmental fluctuations and do not typically enjoy frequent handling, thriving instead as a display animal in a beautifully planted vivarium setup. For the keeper willing to invest in getting conditions just right, they are deeply rewarding and relatively long-lived lizards that rarely fail to impress.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viperia","offers":[{"title":"Male","offer_id":54772266107217,"sku":"borneo-angle-headed-lizard - 002","price":533.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Female","offer_id":54772266139985,"sku":"borneo-angle-headed-lizard - 003","price":533.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1077\/6952\/8657\/files\/Gonocephalus-Borneensis_1.jpg?v=1788340568","url":"https:\/\/viperiareptiles.co.uk\/products\/borneo-angleheaded-lizard","provider":"Viperia Reptiles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
