BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Finally cleaned out Jazz's tank, and moved in #4 ....or Sam as the kids want to call him.... and that would make #1 Frodo We shall see.
Most of Jazzy's hides and thing are still being "decontaminated", so it's a little empty in there.







Sorry ML, I know you want more pictures of Dakota, but don't you think the other people have seen enough?

I want pictures of Dakoda not Dakota, but still nope
#4 and #1 are awesome Meraukes though. Still wish you didn't keep them as holdbacks
Its great to see how he progressed!

Yeah, that one is my bad, I spelled it with a D by mistake because I used to have a dog named Koda. I really wasn't offering pictures of Dakota Nivens!

On a different note, what substrate is that? Sani-chips?

Yup. I'm trying out the Sani-chips. This is the first tank I've put it in, so I can't say yet if I like it or not...

Do you know the sexes of #1 and #4?

#4 is a male for sure. Pretty certain #1 is too.

You know you wanted to!

Here you go ML:

Does that make you a little happier?

That made my day!

If ML is getting pictures... Post some of tiny! Even though your keeping him...

Alright. Just have to upload some pictures, then I'll give him his very own thread.

I have a better idea...
Daily pictures of all of them!!!

Ml your a genius! Yes daily pics of all of them!

Is that animal titled #4 as orange in person as it appears in the picture. It is beautiful.

I would say that the middle of those pictures is the closest to what he looks like "in person". He is a truly amazing color that just does not come out in pictures. The closer to shedding he gets, the darker he gets, but after he sheds he is stunning! (These pictures are taken a couple days after a shed.) The orange still at 1 year old is carried almost to the tip of the tail.

How does #1(Frodo) look?

....you know, the more I look at Frodo, the more I'm thinking s/he's looking more like a girl. So until I see "jigglybits" pop out my kids say I can call her Rosy. (Because, I guess Sam marries Rosy ...Rosie?) So Rosy it is.

How does Rosy look? AMAZING! Like Sam (#4) except lighter, and her stripes are surrounded (shadowed) by these dark pink/reddish salmon colored scales. They are unreal! Valley Reptiles called it a "fiery" look, which describes it well. Again, pictures just don't capture the color well at all, but the picture in my "My Bunch" thread (Rosy is #1) shows the "shadowing" a little bit.

They really are spectacular in person. They seem to be getting brighter the more they settle in over here.
