Finally, BTS breeding!

First, a bit of background. Last summer I rescued a couple blueys from a local collector since he no longer was caring for them. They were so emaciated that I gave them a 50/50 shot of surviving. They were still underweight this Winter so I didn't cool them. Anyway, both of them are males but I didn't expect them to perform this year. I set one of the males down during cage maintenance today and he and a one of my girls had other things to do than just sit and walk around while I cleaned their cages:



Maybe this is a bit too close for comfort.....for everyone involved......my wife commented on the awkwardness of taking this photo....

Wow, he's really chomping her.

Figures they do it when you don't intend on it. Hope you get some babies. BTS's are awesome.

Awesome. Here's to hoping for viable skink eggs.

Actually, they give birth to live young. Very cool lizards

Skink Eggs?

A numer of the smaller skinks lay eggs....some even guard the eggs while they are incubating. The lareger skinks including the blue tongue skinks (Genus Tiliqua) are live bearers.

That is great, congrats!!!!!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for healthy babies!!!
