BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Bought as Indo from LLL. Just being sure. This is about only 2 days before shed, colors are much brighter.

Halmaheras are Indonesians, but not all Indonesians are Halmaheras (as a form). You have a Halmahera. You can call it Indonesian, Halmahera type Indonesian, or Halmahera form Indonesian, or simply Halmahera. It is better to say Halmahera IMO so people already know what you have without having to ask if it is a classic or Halmahera. Most of the time when people say Indonesian nowadays, they mean classic Indonesians, it just depends on the person.

And your skink is a boy.

Thank you for the info, i appreciate it. How can you tell the gender so well? Hips, head shape? c:

Amazing. Thank you for thanking the time to outline, it helped alot. My parents were laughing at "significant" Haha!

I dunno if ill breed him one day. I have a wish to breed indos and halmaheras, to go against some wild capturing. To give people a chance at getting a real captive bred indo or halma. One person wont increase captive bred indos and halmas, but i can sure help in my own little way, with much nice tempers! c:

Don't worry, you aren't the only one hoping to breed them. Just curious, what part of Florida are you in?

Fort Lauderdale c:

Going to the Repticon here on Both days next month. Really excited, most definately will bring pep. Tested him in public today at petsmart, and he looooves getting spoiled by the people around him! Hissed at no one, my lil goober.

Dang, never find any skink enthusiast close to me...

Has he shed for you, yet?

Oh, yes and hes sooooo pretty! All hes got left is his face, helped with his tiny little toes. Ill take a few pics tommorow~ uwu

You cant be that far. Where are you? Bit more specificly, haha c:

I'm in Cape Coral - right beside Ft. Myers. Totally across the state.

Being honest, thats only 2 hours away from me! Seriously not bad at all. The repticon is like an hour away from me or something.

Oh god, my room is busted with animals. All of the ones listed on my profile (besides the dogs) live in my room. With their tanks. Rabbit pen takes a 6th of my room, never would put my buddy in a cage... I have no room! >u<

Always some hay or crap on the floor. Aspen, coco husk, dirt. Super worm containers. Dirty bucket for brick expanding. I have to clean every other day for my OCD to be satisfied and i mostly have Pep in bed resting with me... haha.
