Baby Northern Blue-tongued Skinks

Postby James Wilson » Wed Jul 06, 2011 7:29 pm

I had a nice little litter of 7 baby Northern Blue-tongued Skinks (Tiliqua scincoides intermedia) born at 12:00 noon on 6-26-2011. I am very glad to be working with these guys again! Many thanks to Andrew and Jeff for getting me started with some awesome animals!

It has been a few years (2004 or 2005). Now I need to go update my status as I am now back in San Diego.

Rather than direct you to the entire links for newbies thread (because that would be a little ridiculous! :lol: ), I'll just post the thread from it:
http://bluetongueskinks.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17702

This might help. If the 'upload pictures' button isn't working, then you might need to resize them.

Please post pictures! I remember the last thread of pictures you posted of Hawaii a few year back, those were incredible. :D

Yes, I will sell a few babies. Some of them look just like the mother, and as you mentioned, she is what is all about!

Well if you're selling I'd definetly be interested in one that looks like mom(and hopefully is a girl as well)-in Socal so shipping's not an issue.

Awesome looking batch. I never realized their bellies are pinched so thin when they are born and they are 'tall' in the middle. I could still see that a little in one or two of them. They're definitely newbie pics.

Congrats.
