Do you like your skinks with, or without color?

The silver is stunning, but I must say I still love the warmer tones. Something definitely appealing about the splash of colour, for me anyway :D

I think I prefer the ones with a bit of colour, though I do love the contrast of the black and white. I tend to mainly get drawn to patterns more than the colours though.

I could...and I think everyone knows which one I’d choose. :lol:
But they’re both beautiful.

Going to see Vin on Saturday to hear all about the Daytona show. One of these days I'll get there, more than likely when I retire in a few years. It's on my bucket list! Were you there? Did you talk to Ray?

Would if I could!!! I'll see you there one day!! I may just live a half hour away myself!! Looking to retire somewhere south, I have a condo in Delray but I hate condo living, I rent it out. I could just see the board of directors finding out there was a reptile hoarder in their midst....

SKINK OWNERS PARTY!!!
Florida is great. You’ll fit in fine.
I agree about HOAs. They’re not for us either. It’d be scary to find out that you had to move all of a sudden.

Yes, it would be awesome. Even if all our skinks hate eachother we certainly would have a blast!

Yes!
BTS are rising in popularity. There are more at Daytona and available everywhere every year. I’m a few years, I’ll bet it will be worth going from out of state just to see the BTS.
