What is it?

kaleidoscopelam · 01-13-08, 10:03 PM

Hey, I was recently given a small lizard and am wondering what kind it is. It kinda reminds me of a skink or something, apparently it is under a year old. I'm just wondering what he is so I can provide him with the proper care and stuff. He's shedding quite a bit but I have attached some pics anyways. I haven't ever seen this kind of lizard around here (PEI) before. I have an iguana, breaded dragons, uromastyx etc so I've got an idea about caring for reptiles but I also know that they're all pretty different and the faster I can find out what he is the faster I can give him all the proper care. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks so much!

That's okay, I've heard that from alot of people. I'm starting to think it may be some type of swift...I've spent hours searching online but can't seem to find much.

Not a skink, more like a Swift or Agama I'm thinking, but can't say for sure. Mark

Looks a lot like a swift. I'd probably start looking up different kinds of them.
