On July 3, 2013 at 1:00 pm I had 12 beautiful baby Northern Blue-tongue Skinks (Tiliqua scincoides intermedia) born at my house. They are eating, drinking, growing and (like weeds). I am seeing traits of both unrelated parents in these little beauties. I will post photos of the parents first. Then I will include a group photo of the babies followed by individual photos of them after their first sheds.

Update: If you are interested in these guys, I have two left from this litter (A). You can see them (along with available babies from litters B and C) in the following classified thread
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=23905&p=435681#p435

The Mother (Sheila) is from James Fenn. She has a nice clean pattern with Salmon colored blotches. Her colors can be seen all the way down in to the rings on her short fat tail. Here she is:

The Father (Outback) is from Jeff Greene (a moderator here on this site). Outback's bloodlines trace back to Andrew Seike stock. He has super bright orange blotches on his sides, and a nice light tail. Here he is:

2013 babies available (individual photos coming soon). These guys are only a week old and they are triple (if not more) their birth size. If you are interested in purchasing one of these little guys, please go to my thread in the Classifieds Forum. Thank you.

Wow, what great parentage! Outback is a handsome fellow and Sheila is a pretty and colourful lady, I'm sure those babies will grow up to be mighty fine looking adults.

Congratulations, James. What beautiful skinks!

Two of the babies from this litter are still here with me. They were reserved, but the buyers never followed through. As a result, they are up for sale in the classified section. Here is a link to the classified listing: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=23905
