No, blue-bellied lizards are different species than western fence lizards. Blue-bellied lizards (Sceloporus occidentalis) are found in western North America, while western fence lizards (Sceloporus occidentalis) are found in the western United States. Both species are members of the Sceloporus genus, but they are distinct species with different characteristics.

Between $100 and $150 for proper caging, heating, lighting, and supplements to keep the animal healthy, plus the cost of a vet visit (this species is almost always wild-caught, so will need to be deparasitized).
The lizard itself will probably be around $20. ('There's no such thing as a free puppy').

To keep a western fence lizard as a pet, you will need a terrarium with plenty of hiding spots, branches for climbing, UVB lighting, a heat source, and a substrate that retains moisture. Provide a varied diet of insects, such as crickets and worms, along with calcium and vitamin supplements. Ensure the terrarium is kept at the appropriate temperature and humidity levels. Regularly clean the enclosure to maintain the lizard's health.

The lizard you are describing is likely a western whiptail lizard (Aspidoscelis tigris) or a common five-lined skink (Plestiodon fasciatus). Both species are known for their tan coloration with black horizontal stripes.

Their diet consists of insects and spiders. Therefore, you need to find food that is small enough for the lizard to eat.

Well, how long have you had your lizard? If less than a week he probably feels unsure about what food you might be giving him and refuse to eat it. If that is the case you will have to wait until he feels safe around you and hungry enough, then sone enough you will have a healthy lizard. :D

Delbert can paint the fence in 11 hours so in 1 hour Delbert paints 1/11 of a fence.
Similarly, in 1 hour Dorothy paints 1/12 of a fence.
So together, in 1 hour they paint 1/11 + 1/12 = 12/132 + 11/132 = 23/132 of a fence.
So to paint the fence together they would need 1 / (23/132) = 132/23 hours = 5.74 hours

Lizards can be differentiated by their size, coloration, patterns, and physical characteristics such as body shape, tail length, and head shape. Additionally, geographical location can also help identify different species of lizards. It's best to consult a field guide or a herpetologist for accurate identification.

The "blue bellied lizard" is not a species of lizard. In fact, there are so many species of lizards with this trait that it is too vague for me to confidently answer. I will assume you mean a western United States species of tree lizard of some sort or a lizard of the genus sceloporus. Both are insectivores.
