I agree with boomslang. It is a giant legless skink. Weird looking lizard!

Yes. IT is Acontias plumbeus. It is very weird, but common in Richards Bay. They grow to a full 30cm.
The one aspect that people try to remove from naturalism, and that is to me the most important, is prayer. Without Prayer I would not have managed to do half the things that I have done successfully.

A small colony of Oxyhaloa dubia, two Tivia sp., an unidentified species of Cockroach, 8 tadpoles, 3 dogs, 4 cats, a budgie, and some other random animals.
