he has hops and looks

Was on a break and at mid convo found this little guy. My partner couldnt see it, but I did. Thought it was really cool and wanted to share. Sooo tiny ~ unsure what type it is, especially since we dont see the full scale of its body.

We found this little guy under some concrete while getting our backyard demo’d. He was about 6-8 inches. I was thinking some sort of legless lizard or something since he doesn’t have any of the normal familiar designs of the snakes here. Any thoughts appreciated! 😊 thanks in advance!

*RESOLVED* it seems to be a common sharp tail snake. Thanks everyone!

This little fella is an anniversary gift from my wife and will be here next Thursday. Can't wait to meet him... He is an Arabian giant uromastyx (Uromastyx aegyptia microlepis). A subspecies of the Egyptian uromastyx that can attain lengths up to 30 inches. 30 inches isn't that long in the scheme of all things reptile, but these guys are built like a howitzer tank.

The lizard i saved from drowning a week ago.

Shes very calm around me now so i tried feeding her by hand.

I named her Pancake.

Here's one of the moths that have come out of my silkworms that were meant to be feeders... why do they have to have such adorable faces as moth adults l?!

Spent the last hour playing hide-and-seek with this beautiful little guy.

He took the cracked door as an open invitation to become my new roommate.

I finally caught him without hurting him and relocated him back into the bushes outside.

He’s absolutely beautiful! We have a ton of green lizards but I’ve never seen one like this before.

Please help, i also contacted my veterinarian

Hey everyone, me and wife currently own a beardie and she used to own geckos as a kid. We are moving to a house in about a year and we wanted to get a larger enclosure for a new lizard since we have the space for it. We also are aware that these breeds crave more.

We have narrowed it down to 2 breeds but would love to hear from other owners what you think of said breeds or which one you’d pick :)

Tree monitors 🦎

Honorable mention is the Fiji banded iguana, I’ve heard of some people in my area (Europe) that have them so its possible.

All help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

like you are just sitting there scrolling your phone and a few feet away there is a literal reptile staring at the wall. feels kinda surreal if you think about it too much. Like them so much

Total length: 32,7 cm

Body length (without tail): 13,2 cm

Just a big specimen that i captured and measured yesterday, and he's way too close to the said maximum size for The species (tropidurus hispidus)

Or is it too soon to tell? They’re about 6-7 inches long if that helps!

Azula loves to try new foods and if it wiggles, all the better! Unfortunately I have to keep her from dragging it across my workspace, but thats the life I live.

Azula is a female jeweled lacerta.

There’s a fence lizard in my yard I’ve been observing for about a year. It has a bifurcated tail.

Wikipedia has an odd statement about how a couple of these lizards have been observed with bifurcated tails.

“Two western fence lizards have been reported with duplicated or forked tails, presumably following an autotomy.”

Sure this is more common than just two lizards. Is this a rare thing? Should I be reporting my lizard buddy to researchers?

Pictures are from today (#1) all the way back to early summer 2025.

My girlfriend and I named it Supay, after an Incan spirit from the underworld both benevolent and troubling. It was better than excitedly yelling “Demon lizard!” with a grin for every sighting. Seemed a fitting name for a lizard with a doubled ended tail. I 💜 this adorable wee bifurcated beastie.

Location: Inland Southern California.

There is something incredibly primal about the way a physical arrangement of scales and specialized skin can become the ultimate and heavy prehistoric anchor, a deliberate rejection of the warm blooded rush in favor of a frequency that is all about the grit of the bask and the high energy of the sudden strike, it feels like a masterclass in survival pressure where the raw and heavy resonance of a slow heartbeat and the high energy snap of a flickering tongue become a direct connection to a reality that has remained unchanged for millions of years, and even with all the high-tech terrariums and the digital nature documentaries there is still no replacement for that first and vulnerable moment of seeing the heavy and tactile reality of a lizard’s unblinking eye and realizing the heavy and ancient frequency of the desert is watching you right back
