IJ Blue Tongued Skink Post-Shed

Postby Gene0514 » Thu Dec 08, 2011 3:11 pm

My little guy just shed a couple of days ago so I decided to post these pics. Its color seems to be getting brighter each shed.
I got it in the summer so its about 5 months old and its at about 13".

Wow. what a beautiful IJ! You just dont see this "type" of IJ anymore. A while ago, we had a discussion of what a "classic" IJ looks like to each person. This is my ideal IJ.
