remember seeing the european giant legless lizards on sale, but i'm not sure if there are that many keepers of legless or glass lizards.

I've seen some babies around, but only about two years ago in the UK. They're still quite commonly available at some of the European shows. Really easy to keep, and very food orientated. Can be cooled during Winter and should readily breed when brought out of brumation Cool

So odd to watch feeding. Look (sort of, as in no legs!) like a snake, and yet lunge like a lizard.
