Male lizard...layed eggs?

Question
QUESTION: Hey, uh...a while back, my dad came home from Utah and he brought a Western Fence Crawler lizard since I love reptiles and am actually hoping to be a herpetologist. I told him when he got home that he probably should have left the lizard because of all the stress, but there was nothing we could do by then.
I live in Kansas and I looked it up, and he wouldn't be able to survive here, what with the cold winters. So since we're probably not going back to Utah anytime soon, I set up a nice big cage (20 gallon) for him and kept him in my room.
Well, I researched a ton of western fence crawlers and found out that males have a blue belly and possibly a blue patch on their throats, whereas females usually have no color, possibly a marking on the neck. It also said males may possibly have other colors on their scales, such as tints of red on the back or blue on the entire body. My lizard, who I have named Thorn, has red and blue on his scales, and a very distinguished blue belly.
Well, recently, I went to go clean out his cage. He has a small hide that is a little rock cave with some moist moss sticking out of a hole in the side to keep it humid. Well, inside...he had nestled eggs within the moss.
And I know they're eggs. My lizard is about four and a half inches long, and these were about a centimeter each. They're a pale color. However, it seems they all dried out. They have a leathery skin and they look deflated. When I press on one, it reveals there is a pocket of air inside. They were all in a cluster in the moist moss, but it seems the moss wasn't wet enough.
I know some of his feces are white and oval in shape, but those always came with brown or black droppings and were not that large. These are positively eggs.

Is it a possibility he was a different species than I identified him to be and that the females can have a belly patch? I looked up other species from his area, such as sagebrush and spiny, but it doesn't match the anatomy and their females don't have belly patches, either. And it doesn't seem plausible anyway, since females aren't really the ones that need to display, but I'm wondering if its possible.
I was also wondering if perhaps it is a case of a bi-sex kind of thing...that he/she's both male and female, and was courted by a male.

I actually am not sure what to think of it. I looked up images of eggs on google, and that's most definitely what they are.
If you can give any help as to how a male lizard can lay eggs, that'd be much appreciated.

ANSWER: I have actually had the same problem I believe what you have is in fact a Sagebrush lizard.  I have seen females with the same coloration as males so I would be willing to bet that this is what has occurred with the one you have.  It sounds to me as if you have done the incubation thing well enough where the eggs may hatch.  Also there are areas where there are what is known as locality species where the colorations are different for different areas in quite a number of reptiles.  Your set up sounds great for the lizard and it thought so too other wise it wouldn't have laid the eggs at all.  What's really funny is a friend of mine just had his male Bearded Dragon lay a clutch of eggs.  His male was actually a female and he had just taken the word of the person who sold it to him that it was a male.  Also you may want to look at the underside of the lizard as most males will have what are known as femoral pores which show up as dots along the inner thigh area.  But this is not always accurate as females have these as well but they are more pronounced in males.  If possible send me a photo of the inner thighs and I should be able to tell you for sure.

Hope this helps.

QUESTION: Okay, I've put a bunch of pictures on this website:

http://albernpics.blogspot.com/2010/07/heshe-shemale-fence-lizard.html

At the bottom I have explanations of each picture. I just recently re-setup the cage, but it is basically the same.

I looked and there are darker dots forming a line along the thighs.
I was also told that on the top of the lizard at the base of the tale, there are bony bumps. I was told that males have two and females have one. Heshe has two.
I was also told that males have a "V" shaped scale pattern above the cloaca. Heshe does, too.

So far, Heshe is still a male that laid eggs...=)

ANSWER: Definitely a Sagebrush Female!  Heres a link.  http://www.californiaherps.com/lizards/pages/s.g.graciosus.html  Good luck incubating the eggs.

QUESTION: How did you tell that? All the advice I've been given leads to him being male...

Did I miss something?

Answer
The Femoral pores I was speaking of are not at all present.  http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.californiaherps.com/lizards/image this link will show exactly what I am referring to.  That V Shape is the Cloaca itself.  The pattern of scales and the blue on the belly are easy ways to tell for me as I have caught probably one hundred of this species as well as the western Fence lizard and others over the years.
