Here's a few pictures of one of the skinks I received from the recent Hamm show.

Very nice Kim.

Hopefully it'll color up nicely after it finishes going through shed. :wink:

He looks great Kim! It’s too bad that your plan to give him to Dakota didn’t work out because he isn’t allowed to have blueys anymore. I thought that was a really nice idea you had.

It's actually not in shed. It's axanthic. If "it colors up" it will be disappointing. Yea Jeff, I can't send it to Dakota anymore, oh well! I have to admit I do like the black and silver color. By the way Jeff, lets see some pictures of your shipment.

Now if anyone knows of a male out there let me know since the one guy who has a few mails does not seem to be returning any calls.

Richard, you will have to go over to the "other skinks" section" to see what else I brought back. I was not fortunate enough to get any other blue tongues like all these other guys did. I'll post that later today once I'm done golfing.

Hey now! It is only short term. :wink:

I know. It was my usual straight-faced, barely perceptible Ophidiophile humor at work once again...

I figured but then again I'm half asleep today. Wouldn't that be funny if it did have a shed and be a normal. I use to remember my Keis going in the blue and they look about as close to axanthic as you can get during that period. Although, Keis are about the one species I'd rather have normal colored.

Now, this is a direct order, find me a male axanthic. I'll even do breeding loans.

I actually know a few people with male Halmahera axanthics, I will give you their information once I get done cooking this chilli. :)

ETA: Just sent you the PM, I hope I helped! Can't wait to see these being produced more regularly. BTW, could you post some more photos for me to drool over? I never get tired of seeing them.

No photo shoot and not anything real exciting. Just a couple crappy pictures of 4 inch lizards that just want to hide under the paper towels forcing me to take shots against a clear aquarium bottom. No, they are not egernia or anything ultra cool. Hopefully Ray Gurgi will post his cool new Stokesii he got in.
