I'm voting for something less ordinary. The Fire Skink (Riopa fernandi) from West Africa. Lovely lizards and easy to keep. Pic from http://www.minizoo.donetsk.ua

Second prize goes to my gecko on the SOS poster ;)

They are a very interesting species. Very strange.

I also forgot to mention Rachodactylus leachianus ....they have been my favorite lizard to ever keep.
