When do bts breed?

Postby User01 » Tue Nov 20, 2012 11:04 pm

Hey everyone,

I have been on a hunt for about 3 mouths ish, Just looking for a blue tongue skink but the thing is I want a baby. So far I can only find adults and sub adults :(

When do BTS breed and have baby's?
Just so I can get a ruff idea when to be looking :)

Thanks

generally may to september u should see babies if cycled to your climate,babies from wild caughts will be on southern hemisphere schedule so anywhere from november to march for those

best bet is to find a breeder,and enquire,should be a few babies floating around

I agree! Its just finding the breeder is the hard part.

*Edit a new question how old can a blue tongued skink be before it can live on its own?

Blue tongues are generally seperated from their mom immediately after birth. However, I would recommend only dealing with a breeder who keeps the babies for at least a few weeks to ensure that they are healthy and eating.
