Name this lizard

[nightanole]

ok we are moving to Florida. They have lizards that walk into your house and eat peas. But i have no idea what veg eaters are that small, and have a curly tail. Its not a skink or a whipptail...

That was cute! I’ve seen these around and I just call them curly tailed lizards

They are the northern curly-tail lizard
(Leiocephalus carinatus)

Alpha knows his herps...

I was visiting over at TK Chameleons and they had a fence lizard come in and start checking out their bean beetle colony. It looked like he had done this before.

Where in Florida are you moving? I've seen these guys around, but there are many other species far more prevalent down here.
