 Snake_devil08 I think I have found what your lizard is if you still care lol

I was looking through one of my animal books(Smithsonian institution ANIMAL guide) and here is the name Gray’s Keeled water skink...Latin name:Tropidophorus Grayi....Length 8 to 10 inches...Location Philippines.....Status Locally common....Habit:Semiaquatic.....Intro:This Slender skink has strongly keeled scales on it’s back which end in a spine, Producing a spikey appearance.Its tail is about the same length as the head and body.It lives in cool conditions, In and around mountain streams, Often under rotting logs.If in danger it may jump into the water and hide under stones on the stream bed.Although it is a very common little skink, little is known about its social and reproductive behavior, Except for the fact that the female gives birth to 1 to 6 young.I thought it might help a bit..If you are even still on RZ.lol
