A friend of mine in AZ owned this imported hypo Indonesian BTS (Tiliqua gigas gigas), and she ended up selling it to Andrew, with me acting as a go between (she was and still is a bit of a hermit with a large shingleback colection). Unfortunately, the animal died some time after Andrew got it. It was a cool skink, But I am guessing pretty old as in had been in captivity for at least a few years by the time Andrew ended up with it. I still feel really bad about it dieing.

When you're THAT gorgeous, you can be as mean as you want!!!
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
