Jacob's BTS look like the animal on this page:

http://bluetongueskinks.net/gigas.htm

I don't know, Cole looks different and unique to me. I've seen lots of Indo/Merauke that look like this (common gray color), but Cole is different in my eyes. The BTS in the link are from a local pet store, I've held them -- the color doesn't compare to Cole. Ugh, it's hard to explain what I'm trying to say. :? They're just different!

I'm sure this helped a lot :lazy:

I beg to differ, matey. From all the morphological clues, it is evident they are the equally highly rare, giant-phase pygmy blue tongues. :edward:
