Northern BTS in Canada? (Ontario)

[Sethar]

Hi!
I'm currently looking for any place in Canada to purchase a baby Northern BTS, but am currently having no luck! Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Don't quote me on this, but I believe that Thunder Bay Reptiles ships northerns. Well at least I hope, because that's where I'm looking to get mine! Just type it in and it should come up, I think they sell them for $110.

I would suggest asking for images of the exact skink they are going to send you, and posting here to confirm if its a Northern, that's a very low cost for a true Northern skink. Also check out the facebook group Blue tongue skink owners of Canada, there seems to be quite a few breeders on there, and likely some on the East coast. Good luck with the search.

Ok thanks I'll be sure to ask for photos! Thanks for warning me

Do yourself and the species (NBTS) a favour , find a NBTS breeder and buy a captive bred skink , not a illegally wild caught which has then been trafficked illegally / smuggled to the USA/then to Canada.

I will make sure it's not wild caught! That's the last thing I want
