They also help prevent the spread of Lyme disease, since ticks that feed on these lizards who carry Lyme disease will no longer have the disease after they feed on the lizard!
Same with alligator lizards and a couple other species I believe
TLDR: be nice to these little guys, they are doing good work
Does it get rid of my Lyme disease if I rub it on my skin??
And they blue, tho 😯
Bluebelly lizards!

I used to catch these for lyme disease research! Most fun I’ve ever had on a job.
This will sound stupid brace yourself…can I gain immunity by eating it? If not by eating one, what about a steady diet over a course of a few weeks?
Not to be confused with Southern Lounge Lizards…
It looks like one of those color changing sequins pillows
when i was little we called them bluebellies.
we still call them that, but we did when we were little, too
Keep your cat indoors so these guys can eat more ticks.
AND they’re stunningly beautiful!!! What a win-win lizard friend. Thanks Western Fence Lizards!!!

*Genie turns me into a lizard
How the hell did you catch him? Those boys are so fast
he looks so chill
I’m gonna Dr. Connors this and turn into a super villain
He looks like one of those cheap sequin pillows you can find at Walmart… I love it
Aww man, this really brought me back, we would call them “blue bellies” as kids.
Beautiful coloring!
Cyberpunk 2077 customized dicks be lookin like:
Oh THAT’S what they’re called! I used to catch them all the time as a kid, they were surprisingly friendly once they realized you weren’t gonna hurt them. Suiting name, they DID absolutely love fences.
But not an immunity to lookin’ fresh, it seems!
Why he blue
Just eat clay
Lucky bastards.
Looks like one of them Ty Flippable Soft Toys!
Wish I had that power. Ticks are bad this Spring.
I hear if you cook these with extra monster parts you gain immunity to Lyme for a given period of time.
I remember when I was a kid I used to chase those all the time
That ain’t look like a lizard
Are any reptiles vectors for lyme disease? I have only ever heard of mammals getting it.
yes yes Mon county (: never knew lol
He looks very phallic from that angle.
Blue
Ahhh, the lime is so sexy.
