My New Blue Tongue Skink

[simonas]

Picked him up tonight been after one for ages

Hes 5 yr old male not sure what to call him yet

such a chilled out reptile hes about 16 inch I;ll measure him properly when hes settled

His nose shows a couple of scales which hadn;t quite shed they have now

that is awesome always wanted to keep reptiles how hard are they to care for ?

 

[simonas]

not sure with the skink yet but snakes are easy

the set up for the skink is quite simple to set up hes very friendly and great to handle, he looks like he has personality for a lizard

looks like he could bite quite hard if he got angry though might try a leopard gecko first

I was wondering around a shop the other day and they had a bearded dragon who would follow me past it's cage; it didn't follow my boyofriend around hahahaha. I don't particularly think they are cute but this one was

Stunning, Im really tempted by one but think ill go for the Fire skink they just seem a little easier and have a smaller price tag.

Really nice skink I've been saving for a bit for a new rep (like i need more, I've already got 10 cresties ) , like a chahoua but this... is tempting, and it would be nice to have a reptile which isn't a gecko
