Going back to the dinosaur ages, (yes they were reptiles) not very much. They are still cold blooded scaly reptiles that lay eggs. In fact the 2 main types of reptiles (snakes and lizards) have really only got 1 main difference, one has legs and one hasn't. I'll let you work out which ones which. In fact some larger snakes have got 4 lumps on their belly where legs were once in their ancestral history, or where legs will be a few million years from now.
