BTS Photo Day (Easterns plus a couple of Meraukes)

[Ophidiophile]

Got inspired by Valley's photos (Thanks!) to get out the camera and snap some outside photographs of 3 of my 4 2013 Gurgui Easterns and 2 of my Susann Meraukes. They tend to look better if clicked on and viewed closer to full size. Here they are:

Eastern #1 (from Ray's F5 x M3 clutch):

Eastern #2 (from Ray's F14 x M6 clutch):

M6F14-02.jpg

Eastern #3 (from Ray's F11 x M4 clutch; i.e., the "hypo" throwing parents):

F11M4-05.jpg

And some updates of 2 of the Meraukes from Susann's JJ x Maddie clutch:

Awesome Austin!

Oh man, I can't wait for my Easterns to get that big. They all look amazing.

[Dakota]

They look awesome!! ..and the Easterns look good as well.

*had to throw that in*

[Jeff]

Those look great! I'm happy to see more groups of easterns in the U.S. For too long they have mostly been kept as pets here. I have a feeling that they are going to become much more available in the near future. That is great because they are a wonderful species to keep.

Let's just hope people don't mix breed these once they start getting a number on them.. the Northerns with the Northern x IJ..

[bluetonguerocks]

i believe many irresponsible breeders will end up doing just that unfortunately

Those Easterns look so different to the Easterns around here. Do you know what locale they can be traced back to?

Beautiful skinks.

Ray Gurgui will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure they are Qld. So they definitely would look different from those in South Aus.

Man I make good looking Meraukes!

[Scincoides]

You sure do susann

[Mimo]

Beautiful collection ^^
Love the last two, really vibrant colors

[Jessica]

Gorgeous colors! I love the third Eastern.

[Toria Dawn]

Rio!! <3

[Scincoides]

If I remember correctly Susann was sure that Rio would be the most colorful of the litter. She really called that one. He looks amazing

Austin turned out better looking than I first expected!
If that's how Austin looks you have to post pictures of Dakota!

[Susann]

Any chance we could see pictures of Dakota and Kentucky...?

[Ophidiophile]

Sure. I'll probably snap them later this week or this weekend at the latest. The whole Merauke crew just shed so it's an opportune time!
