- I found this little guy in our compost heap -which made him a perfect target for our chooks, so I relocated him somewhere safer. Not sure of the species - if you have any idea please let me know, thanks. This actually happened back on the 3rd of April 2022 - and I only just came across the footage again.
Wow, fascinating. I'm always amazed by the diversity of creatures there are!
Yeah he was pretty interesting- and slippery
What a wonderful, special little guy!! They're so rare (and cute!). Most people don't even know they exist and assume they're snakes (and kill them).
Yes I've heard they do get killed for snakes. I was a bit cautious when I first picked him up, but I was pretty sure he was a lizard - they have different shaped heads. That's what I was going on anyway until I saw the legs
Yep, that's it. The lack of a defined neck, and the shape of the head kind of gives it away. Good on you for saving the little one.
Wow, that's a really cool creature. You're so lucky for finding it.
Thanks - I've seen a few others around here as well, so I guess I'm lucky to have them in the area
