Maximillian the lizard from Madeira ready for a new home

Submitted by Steve on 10:56, 13th May, 2025 | 0

Maximillian says ‘I’m Maximillian, a Madeiran wall lizard. You may have seen me in the Guernsey Press, from when I hitched a lift in a suitcase from Madeira all the way to Guernsey. It’s now time for me to find a forever home.

Since I landed in Guernsey I have been fully vet checked, wormed and all is in good health. I’m looking for a home where I can be a display lizard. I’m quite shy and enjoy my home comfort. I would prefer my new owner to have experience in the reptile world.
