Care of the Mexican beaded lizard in captivity is the same as that recommended for the Gila monsters, but since it is a bigger lizard it requires more commodious quarters. Vivariums with a large floor space of at least 200 x 150 x 100 cm are necessary. Provide suitable rocks and retreats for the lizards. A thermostatically controlled ceramic heat source, or alternatively a spotlight, can provide heating with the appropriate wattage. Provide a low dish of water for soaking.
