I’ve seen lizards running around in the garden but these seem pretty big imo like 1-2cm

I’ve also seen a 4ft long California king snake

Yeah the first two look like western skinks. The last one looks like a southern alligator lizard

Edit: Assuming the weed on the right is burclover, the eggs do look like they'd be about the right size. (5-7mm?)
