How many Blue Tongue Skinks do you have?

[Romeyrider]

I only have one but I feel like then I can put all my attention towards him when it comes to skink care. I do however have 6 sand boas, a bearded dragon, and a tortoise. What other pets do you guys have? Oh I have a dog too but she's really more of a daughter than a dog...

[Dakota]

Technically, I have 8 skinks. Possibly 7 by the time my situation is over with. But none in my possession as of now. I also do not have other pets (unless you count plants as pets) due to either having to give them to friends because of my move back to Tennessee, move back to Florida from Tennessee (the second time), or simply wanting to thin down the herd. I do not plan to add too many more long-lived reptiles, but I plan to get a few more Bluetongues and a nice group of Ophisaurus ventralis going. Now once I finally move to Australia, that'll be a different story...

[DianaBlueTongue]

I have 11 of my own skinks right now, and 3 house guest skinks (Dakotas meraukes). It was much easier to put more attention toward them when I only had a few and miss that kind of interaction, luckily im a stay at home mom so Im still able to interact with them all a lot, I try to take 4-5 out every day, especially the juvies.

The other reptiles my husband and I currently have are a 1.2 trio of Kankakee bullsnakes and 10 offspring from them, 1.1 false water cobras, 1.1 essiquibo Guyana redtails, 3 pink tongue skinks, 1 bearded dragon, 2.2 cornsnakes, 1.2 ball pythons, 2.1 crested geckos and 1 unsexed offspring we hatched a couple months ago, a dachshund and a 18 month old baby girl

That might sound like a lot but I know theres members here with collections 100 times bigger and incredible then my own, JBolar being one of them since he keeps emerald tree boas. Such gorgeous snakes!

Hi! Just 3 for now, 2 halys and a northern, all unsexed. Merauke coming next year.
10 Ball Pythons (2 pair pied, trio BEL, Bumble bee, Albino, Het pied male) Leopard boa pair, Tarahumara boa pair, and a Hog Isl. F.
3 Bearded Dragons, Cordylus (flame belly) pair, unsexed pair plated lizards, (flavigularis)
Emerald swift pair.
I can't believe how many some of you have. Wish I had the space, but then again, the more I have, the less attention
I pay to each singularly. I work full time, and seriously could not handle much more, as I do reptile rescue also from
time to time. Unfortunately, there is always a Bearded Dragon or snake out there someone no longer cares for.
Fun topic, will be interesting to see!

I have 4 northern blue tongued skinks all just over 3 months old. I handle them everyday. They know when I get home from work. They are sitting on top of their hides waiting to get fed. I do plan on getting some more. I also have 2 pink tongue skinks.

[Susann]

As can be seen by my signature, I own 11, all Merauke.

[Lauriek]

3 southern blotched bluetongues; 2 shingle backs; 1 rabbit; 1 German Shepherd; 2 humans.

[MechHAN]

Only one...really don't have much room for any other pet...used have a gargoyle gecko I give him to my sister-in-law,she love that gecko anyway...
Always dreaming about one day can get a big mansion with garden and then I can keep some bluey and maybe a tegu...

[Scotts1au]

Terrible to say, I don't really know, probably around 30. haha Alpine Blotched and a few lowlands.

[Fatal_S]

I have 18 adults and 18 babies here at the moment. My numbers are always in flux due to sales/purchases/breeding loans/holdbacks/etc.

[Jeff]

I currently have 37 which are defined in my signature. There is a reptile show this weekend though.

[Jbolar]

as others have said signature shows what is in my care.. + boarding a skink.

[Sarikazam]

Only 2 BTSs for me at the moment. In the future I would love to get my hands on one of Mel's caramels!
I also have 1 Beardie, 1 Leo, 1 Crestie, 1 Fire Skink, and 1 Veiled Cham. But the list of other reptiles I want to own some day is a mile long.
And there should be a couple of cats, dogs, and ponies kicking around here somewhere.

[Fatal_S]

I happen to have a moderately evil caramel yearling available to a good home....

[mark_w]

Currently I have 22, along with 15 Australian tree skinks, 8 pink tongues, 11 Cunningham's, 4 Gidgees and 4 Major skinks. Not counting my geckos, snakes or tortoises

Wow, that's pretty lame for a single guy. If I didn't have a wife to keep.me in check, I would probably have twice that many!

[kl]

I don't know Jeff, with 37 Blue Tongues it does not sound like your wife is doing a great job at keeping you in check. I don't even dare have a fedex package come in on days my wife might be home to see it and I have less than half of what you are keeping.
