    The legless lizard is much bigger than I thought it would be! how about Nofoot instead of Littlefoot or Speedy? or even Toothless or Footless.... no wait, Footloose! lol I'm not helping...

      The European species is definitely a large species! 😊

    I have a male and female sheltopusik (same species as yours). The best way to determine the sex of this species is to catch them in action whilst they defecate; if your legless lizard is male, hemipenes will appear. If not, female.

    This is so awesome, congrats :) I live in south africa and we have some of the coolest looking skinks, I've always wanted to own one but there arent any breeders and id never get one from the wild. So for now I just visit them by herping:)

    First off congratulations you finally got your legless lizard. I obviously have a different subspecies because mine is nowhere close to that thickness of weight. Can’t wait to see more videos one him/her. I’m very excited for you congratulations.

    • @HunterHouck
      @HunterHouck  2 роки тому +3

      Thank you! The European legless lizard is native to Europe and the Middle East, so you would have an entirely different species. :)

    • @moremoregeckos8297
      @moremoregeckos8297 2 роки тому +4

      No problem!! That would make sense mine is a eastern glass lizard, pretty different in there own ways thank you!! Have a fantastic day.

    • @HunterHouck
      @HunterHouck  2 роки тому +2

      I love eastern glass lizards! I grew up in Kansas, so I saw them occasionally. They’re (arguably) in the same genus as European legless lizards! (Depends on which taxonomist you ask. 😅)

    • @moremoregeckos8297
      @moremoregeckos8297 2 роки тому +2

      Wow that’s awesome I hope to spot a few more in the future overall they seem pretty calm and there patterns are absolutely stunning. I thought they were in the same genus but wasn’t fully sure so thank you!! But the Ophisaurus ventralis and Pseudopus apodus are both absolutely amazing and hope to see some Pseudopus apodus in the future.

    You could call them Themperor 🤣 I use it instead of king or queen.
    Or 'Exe', because it sounds like the german word for lizzard (Echse). (Don't no any other european words for lizzard).
    So happy for you!

      Like I mention in the video, she was a rescue, so I don’t know her full past. I waited for years to adopt one so that I wouldn’t be contributing to the wild-caught industry.
