What does a water lizard eat?

Water lizards are carnivores that mainly eat fish, amphibians, crustaceans, small mammals, birds, and insects. Fish are a common food source, and they also prey on frogs and shrimp. Sometimes they climb trees to catch birds and insects.

The diet varies with age: for young water lizards, feed mainly crickets and mealworms. Once adult, you can offer them a richer variety of foods.
