sort of related... I have a different type here. the males, in breeding season are black and orange, and the females all brown, as with the babies. this time of year they are all brown. I have a waterbowl outside my office which they all come and drink from, and i chuck out locusts for them, they're all pretty skittish. I've attached some pics, the one is off the internet as i dont have one of a nicely coloured male

Those look like red Headed agamas, those are found more in Nigeria and that part of africa.
