    Thats awesome fire skinks are probably one of the best skinks to have as a pet, what's the size of his/her enclosure?

    yeah! and vicious too i wouldn't risk hand feeding, that's for sure lol

    Ivor - i got it from LPS in January, s/he was smaller back then, so I'm thinking probably just over 1 y. old.

    Very nice and colorful Skink Lija ! Do they become hand tame like the Blue or Pink Tongue's?
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I'm not sure it didn't work for me, people say they can be tamed, but when I need to take him out to clean cage the only way I can do is with gloves, he bites..... a lot.... and play dead...... usually I don't see him, only when the guy hungry and then he eats like n video and then burrows and I don't see until the next meal

    Dan I'm not that brave to measure lol about 12-15" probably

    I don't blame you Lija, I was bitten by one that size. They pack a very, very mean bite.
