How long does it take for a lizard to regrow its tail? I am going to make necklaces out of the dried tails for my friends at school. How many lizards will I need, there are 23 kids in my class and I have 4 weeks.

It can take 60 days or longer for a lizard to regrow a tail. Some species do not regrow tails. Your project would not be recommended since it is extremely stressful and painful for a lizard to lose and regrow a tail. This is in addition to sanitary and health issues related to the piece of tail.
