Pink tongue skink breeding UPDATE. 11 babies born

Postby starscream3232 » Sat Jan 30, 2016 10:31 am

My pair of pink tongues bred 3 times so far. This is their first time breeding. They were originally imported from Germany over a year ago. They are unrelated to current US stock as far as I know. They do look very different compared to any US ones I've seen. Needless to say I'm very excited about babies and having a new bloodline in the US.

11 tiny babies were born on Saturday April 23rd. The female weighed 99 grams two days before birth. Dropped to 60 grams after. All babies are doing great and have started eating.

Amazing !!!! Congrats!! You put together a great group. You probably have the coolest group that I've seen in the US. I love the black on grey. Congrats again!

They're gorgeous! Never knew the adults were so large, always envisioned them a smaller species. The babies are so adorable! Congrats!!

Hi there
Your baby skinks look great,
I have the brown form,
I have been looking for the black form which I think you have,
As it can be kept at a lower temperature,
Can you help,
I'm in the Netherlands next to germany,
Could you please please give me some information
Of the company or person who sold you your pink tongue skinks,
As l have been looking for a long time,
Many thanks for any help
