I'll definitely post pictures of the babies...I'll put some up of her in a day or so...she's quite the little chunk; I'm excited because there was no guarantees when I bought these two; I suppose there still isn't, but I'm keeping fingers crossed.

Hi Blotch,

My female from Prince Regent in Western Australia, you see here is not gravid, the reason why she is Fat, is because she lost more than half of her tail, and has nowhere to store all the fat like she would normally.

Otherwise she would be skinny, like you can see with my other female Northern Blue-Tongue Lizards, that have their whole tail.

i didn't realise there would be that much difference in body size due to the loss of a tail. That's nutz!!! Blueys constantly amaze me.

Hi Richard c,
My female you see here from Prince Regent is not the sister of your female, you got from me, she is the sister of the male who is from Prince
Regent 500km North of Broome in Western Australia.

Your female from Broome is the sister of my female from Broome also, that you see on top of the hide box, she is tanny and silver grey with dark spots on her head like your female. and here is a picture of my female that your one is related to mate.

Hi Leigh,

Yes they do get darker, as you head North East, if you look at the 2 from Prince Regent, you will see they a more darker, where the 2 from Kununarra don't have as much speckle spots on their head, and the banding on the sides of the body, is more clear.

Where the 2 from darwin both have stronger banding on the sides of their body, and no speckle spots at all on thier heads.
