BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Cheyenne and Coral would like to announce the arrival of four new babies, expected more but these are pretty good size for Easterns! They were eating when less than 24 hours old. Born around mid day April 9. Now waiting on Coral's sister, Shannon, who is quite a bit bigger and is due any day!
Very short gestation in comparison to Northerns, and the girls ate like pigs till almost the end of term, also unlike my Northerns who practically stop eating the moment of conception.

Congratulations!!!!!
Absolutely stunning little rascals!
All the best to them, there parents and the other expectant parents!! Keep us posted!!

Omg, they are adorable! Congratulations

Thanks all, I will be a nervous wreck until her sister lets loose!

woop woop! They're adorable!!

You should hook up some kind of live webcam so we can all keep an eye on her! One of my grand plans is a skink can But easier said than done I think. Anyways pictures pictures please! X

I thought of that but I'd never get any work done. I've witnessed birthing with my northerns, though.

Haha yeh I think if I could watch Ven while I was at work I’d probly just worry more, especially if he was having a lazy day under his log.

Congrats, Splashy!
What an amazing accomplishment!
I know you've worked hard for that. It's a victory well deserved!

Congratulations !! Easterns are just waaay cool.

Thanks, all! Unfortunately her sister did not fare as well, slugs and one sole survivor. Big and feisty, though, will post pics when he calms down a bit.

Aww bless her,sorry to hear that, what a shame. Hopefully that little guy will grow up big and healthy. Thanks for keeping us posted.

Thank you, and yes he will! Eats like a hog and I love his feistiness and little threat displays....absolutely adorable and will be spoiled to heck.
Heard of some other bad luck with these this year so I stopped beating myself up. I'm over the moon with what I have!

If you get chance get some pics of him doing his displays I’d love to see that, sounds super cute

I tried but he runs like heck...anyone who says these guys are slow moving lizards....even as adults....have you ever tried to catch one on a carpet? Even a shingleback can run like the wind!

Haha bless him, it’s a scary big world when you’ve just been born I suppose. He sounds great, lots of personality. Are you keeping him? If so what are you calling him?

Yes, and haven't decided on a name yet.

Congratulation on the Eastern Babies! My female NSW Eyeband Eastern, just dropped her litter, making a post up today.

All right Stacey!! Hope you had a bigger litter than mine! Can't wait to see them!
