Those look like Southwestern Fence Lizards to me (Sceloporus cowlesi). Should be easy to care for, give water, and crickets dusted with calcium supplements for reptiles. They should take meal works, earth worms and just about any insect they can fit in their mouths as well.

DOH! reptilesof az.org.....why didn't I think of that?
I can't take credit for catching them.....What can I say, hubby has fast hands
The calcium powder says 2x/week so that's my plan. Both seem to take the dusted crickets just fine.
The big one ate 4 crickets yesterday....2 really large ones....his digestion is really hummin' along now with the heat lamp! .....and the corresponding output!
When I added the 2nd one, at first they did the puffing up, push-ups and posturing stuff for about 2 weeks....now they don't do it that much. And there's been no fighting, so I guess they'll get along.
Thanks Bart!
