| | | I think this is a common garden lizard but have NEVER had anything to do with lizards
Hi Just wonder if anyone can help me i think i found a common garden lizard, its only bout 1 and half inchs long so i think maybe a baby we did look for a mum but no luck. i have never had any dealing with liizards apart from holding at farms. So if i could get a picture on wondered if anyone can help tell me what it is?, i also wondered if anyone know can i keep it we have an empty tank and thought it might make a nice home, but if i can then i need an idea as to what it will eat and drink or what it needs to live.
Thanks for any help.
Trina.
I dont seem to be able to work out how to get a picture on here, i did put it in the Gallery for reptile and amphibian, if anyone can look nad help i would really be greatful. |

I can't identify your lizard but hopefully I have added your photo for you.
Welcome to WAB and I am sure someone will be along soon with an i.d. for you. |

Hi and welcome to wab..
Please dont keep any wild creature in captivity they dont do very well and it could be illegal.
There are instructions in the Gallery this link might help upload them to the image Gallery then you can put a link to this thread.
Someone will id it for you. http://www.wildaboutbritain.co.uk/fo...otos-info.html |

hi there
its not a lizard but a newt. it's in it's terrestrial phase (living on land) so if you put it back in the garden under some cover it will be fine. don't let it dry out though.
cheers

Definitely a newt - they are in a lot of gardens at this time of year. Look carefully and you will see that it has no scales so it must be an amphibian, not a reptile  |

I am not brilliant with newts either, could it be a smooth newt? Here is a pic of a smooth aka common newt from earlier this year.
