Owing to their size and placid temperament, blue-tongued skinks are a unique group of vivarium animals. Since the early days of herpetoculture, the bizarre sleepy lizard (Tiliqua rugosa) and the impressive blue-tongued skinks (Tiliqua spp.) have been very popular pets, quickly becoming very friendly towards their keepers and establishing a real rapport with them.

This book covers a wide range of knowledge of the biology of the genera Tiliqua and Cyclodomorphus in 30 chapters written by 18 experts on the group. The German-Australian-Swiss team of editors has gathered together well-known scientists and experienced vivarium hobbyists and professionals to contribute detailed reports on all species and subspecies of blue-tongued skinks. Particular emphasis has been laid on the husbandry and reproduction of these animals in captivity. Additional chapters cover the biology, anatomy, systematics, history and conservation of these fascinating large skinks. Three new subspecies of blue-tongued skinks are described. Comprehensive identification aids, a bibliography and a list of specialist terms round off this unique book.

For those of you who are not familiar with the book, as you can see by the title of the thread, this is what we've been referring to as "the bluey bible" as it's considered to be the ultimate book on blue tongues. I've owned it for years, have read it cover-to-cover, and refer back to it all the time.
When I bought my copy I think I paid close to $100 for it so this is an excellent price!

If you are serious about blueys I think you need to consider buying this book. It's an excellent time of year as well as you can tell your family members to get it for you as a Christmas present.

I have read it multiple times, and no doubt: I find something new every time I read it! I refer to it constantly; it is a "need-to-have" kind of book if you are getting serious with Tiliqua or Cyclodomorphus. This is a STEAL!

Thank you for the book. It came in very good shape!!

Anyone who doesn't have it needs it! Great price! Buy them!!!!! And yes, a STEAL AT THIS PRICE!!!
(Wouldn't sell you mine for twice that!!!)

Hey Edward I am interested in buying a copy. Hope you still have some.

Do you still have any Bluey Bibles for sale?

I want to buy a book too ..if you still have ?
