My
first ever reptile was a Northern Blue Tongued Skink (Tiliqua scincoides
intermedia) I named Sally. Long story short, I wound up selling her and had
regretted it ever since. I went without a Blue Tongue Skink for quite some
time. I missed having one. A reptile friend had some juveniles for sale and
without question I purchased Skanky from him. I am so glad I did! I can't
imagine not having one ever again.
I do not know whether Skanky is male or female yet, there is no easily
spotted difference between genders in skinks. Their diet is very varied;
feeding on various fruits, veggies, insects and even wet dog or cat food!
They are truly a scaly dog when it comes to personalities. Skanky is a bit
huffy with me, but only when I go to take him/her out, after that s/he's very
curious and happy to just chill with me on the couch watching TV. I am so
glad Skanky is mine!
