It is thought that the presence of western fence lizards diminishes the danger of transmission of Lyme Disease by ticks. The incidence of Lyme disease is lower in areas where the lizards occur, and it has been found that when ticks carrying Lyme disease feed on these lizards (which they commonly do, especially around their ears), the bacteria that cause the disease are killed. No. I used to breed them and did plenty of research before i did. Even if research was wrong, i was bitten countless times and not so much as a swelling showed up on my skin

No they are not venemous. My 7 year old daughter has two and a clutch of eggs she is raising. She holds her lizards all the time. They have become very tame and sweet.

The western rattlesnake usually refers to the various subspecies of the prairie rattlesnake and, yes, they are venomous but not poisonous.
