I was looking for extra money for the Tinley Reptile Show and I still regret it. I'm going to be doing some rearranging in my room to see if I can have a place for a nice display cage for one again. I really love the species.
I've been VERY tempted for several years - since my first reptile show I ever attended - about getting a chameleon. What species is yours?
Just a vield nothing special but he has awesome blue tones and better color than most

Oh yea def they are one of the most hardy species you can start with you need a screen enclosure they like air flow and I put a strong plant in there for climbing like bamboo and strong vines basking temp about 105-110f and ambient temp 85-95f have a life span of about 7-9 years and most are semi docile they do eat ALOT calcium dust 3xs a week as baby's and 1x a week as adult they are very fast growing and very easy to breed on captivity if you took that route I can answer a lot of questions of ya have anymore it also does count to mention they prefer 50-70% humidity they also have to have a UVB sours 10.0 repti-sun is what I use

Im sure he'd love the 19 hour flight haha
sure he would!
Hi Kristen, that is one beautiful blue tongue skink you got! I love that pattern on his back. I have a question that'll lead to a suggestion though. Are you feeding him snails that you caught in gardens? If so, I would suggest feeding cornmeal to the snails prior to giving your skink those snails. Many people (potentially your neighbor) may use pesticides in garden so cornmeal feeding may get rid of the pesticide that the snail had previously ingested.
Wow, she is really big!
I live in Australia as well and there is this one blue tongue that lives in a hole under the stairs near the shed.
He has been there ever since i can remember, definitely more than 5 years for sure!
I used to be scared of it when i was young but now its great to see he/she come out and walk around.
Is he comfortable, well, sort of.
Ive only seen him a couple times and he just goes about his business not worrying about me.
I don't have much wildlife either and im lucky to have this beauty!
