My Indo and Tanimbar!

Postby Owlstar » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:16 pm

Thought I should share with some BTS lovers, my friends and parents think I'm crazy as I go goggly eyed on my skinks, or any of my other reptiles or pets for that matter. [Sorry for low quality, iTouch pictures!]

Here's Cobalt, he's my Indonesian... I'm not sure how old he is, but I don't think he's full grown yet. There are a few more pictures of him than my Tanimbar.
Image Here he is looking curiously at why I'm taking a picture of him during dinner time.

Image A little peak from his burrow.

Image My finger is a comfortable pillow.

Again, a few pictures of my Tanimbar, Tarzan [though from his fierceness upon arrival he has been labeled "Nero", "Atila" and "Genghis Khan"].

Image His first night home!

Image Showing off his pinkness and adorable-ness.

My skinks! :D

Looking great! I have a few tannies that "pink up" as well. They tend to get more pink when handled/stressed.

I've had the indo since January 27 2011, and I was given the 7 yr. old Tanimbar on September 6th, so he's a new one.

A gold sounds cool too! But I think one of my favorite to look at are the Blotched ones. I think their pattern is really cool.

Your Tanimbar has such a strong looking tail. Great looking skink.
