My son found this little guy in a friend's house. They had seen it briefly a couple weeks ago but is disappeared. Today it showed itself again but was to worn down to run. I have him in a small aquarium now trying to get him to drink and heat him up so maybe he will eat tomorrow. Outside of what the photos show all i can say is that he is about 7-8" head to tail and his skin is slightly spiny behind the legs and on the tail.
Anyone know what he is???

I don't know what it is, maybe some kind of swift? It looks like it had a hard tome finding food or water while loose in the house, it is very emaciated and dehydrated.Try putting a larger shallow water bowl in with it. I don't know if it will make it. Give an update when you can...thanks.

I could be wrong, but it looks to be a northern curly-tailed lizard to me. Leiocephalus carinatus. please correct me if im wrong.
