Hello, I am in desperate need of help identifying my new blue tongue. I just got her from a foster family and they have no clue what subspecies she was and didn’t exactly know how to take care of her for the time they had her. I am currently upgrading her to a bigger tank then the one she came with.
They said that they barely used the humidifier and lights they had. When finding out about this I was shocked that she had not managed to get sick or have any shedding problems at all. I would appreciate it if you could help me identify her. She is currently 2 years old and 23 inches long
Edit: I am sorry I thought I had attached the images

Re: Please help identifying
Through my own personal experience, Meraukes tend to be more tolerant of lower humidity than some of the other Indonesian skinks.

I was trying for sometime to figure out if she was a Merauke, the humidity was just throwing me off. I have another Merauke but his coloring was a lot darker and more brown then hers. Thanks for the help!
