All captions are from the email, these are NOT my skink; just posting them for splashy07. :)

Here they are the day they came home.
One was supposed to be for a friend...had to go back and get another for her. I fell in love with these instantly !

Here is Cilla, my four year old, and Topaz, four months, and a juvenile northern I brought home from the LI reptile expo last Sunday. Two friends of mine were looking for Northerns, and I just couldn't leave it there. Asking price was 175, got for 150 with my vendor discount. I had him home 5 minutes and decided my friends could wait, this one was mine! Had to relocate a few bearded dragons temporarily to make room! My only regret is I did not take them both, he had two.

Took this picture at expo to send to friend wanting one....had to tell her later that she couldn't have it.....

They look great. I especially like the Halmaheras. How long are they? Do you weigh them?

Nice looking northern. Love the colors. I would have bought both since I have no self control.

Thanks, everyone, and special thank you to Dakota for doing this for me. Never weighed them, but the larger haly is 22", smaller one 18-19. Smaller one had dropped plugs, and I've seen some 'activity'......
If anything happens, I'll let everyone know!
And yes, Cilla is a beast, came out of brumation as fat as she went in!
