Gorgeous!!! So great to see you back and posting, this is what I'm sure most of us were waiting for. :D Bluey pics! They all look so healthy and shiny.

Jealous of the greenish brown lawn and lizard friendly weather, we still have snow on the ground.

Yes, it's like she's been dipped in white-wash! :lol:
Katrina, March-April in Utah is psycho-weather, Friday we had about 2 inches of new snow at noon, and today not a cloud in the sky and 75 degrees!

Touché! :lol: I promise though, somehow in the pictures the grass looks a lot greener than it really is! :chin:

Why, thank you everybody! Yes, like a proud mama, I take full credit for my gorgeously classic Meraukes :roll:
I have yet to see an unattractive Merauke, but in my book, this is just how they're supposed to look... :love: Strictly my opinion and preference though.

Maybe a stupid question..

But letting your skinks outside in the grass, does this pose any parasite/mite issues?

Parasites and mites are very species specific... so parasites that affect your dog won't affect your BTS. Reptile mites need reptiles around to survive, so they might be transferred through something bought at a pet / reptile store but the chances of picking something up from outside it very, very slim. In Northern Canada, pretty much zero. :D
