I think something is wrong with my snake...

Thursday evening I stopped off at Petsmart to get food for my foster kittens. I walked past the reptile section because what else was I going to do, right? And behold, I saw two little white things at the front of a tank holding an anole and a long-tailed lizard. At first I wondered if it was some mushrooms growing, as I've had that happen in the eco-earth before. But as I squished my nose against the glass I realised it was a tiny pair of eggs. So I asked if I could have them to try to incubate them, and the manager said yes!

They have both candled with veins, which is excellent, so they're in the incubator with the corn snake eggs as that is a good temp gradient for anoles at least.

So whatcha think they are? Anoles or Long tails?

p.s. The substrate is not soaking wet like the photo implies. Stupid flash.
 
Oh wow, those are tiny! It'll be really cool of they hatch. I have no lizard knowledge whatsoever, so I'll hop on the single person bandwagon and guess anole.
 
So the first of the two eggs hatched, a full 2 weeks earlier than expected. And it's a long tailed lizard! :D I'll try to get photos tonight when I move it into a temporary set up to get it established before I rehome it.
 
Pictures of super teensy and super long leezards!

Hmmn... I wonder why they are called long tailed lizards. Complete and utter mystery.

Also, wow, I'm looking at their size compared to those tiny eggs and I'm surprised they fit in there.
 
Yay! I guessed right!
OMGosh! Those are the cutest little things! Love the close up pics.
 
Photo update on ze leezards. They are both eating well on flightless fruit flies, and taking water drops from the leaves of their fake fern.
