Ray has a few hypo adults...

I chose the Keis. They're beautiful and I'd like to obtain a breeding pair some day.

Well, Northerns are definetly the best! I would definetly recommend them as a first bluey. If you work on your parents you could get one of Ray's babies in the spring!

Mike- I love your new avatar! The tongue is great!

Tiger, I think an ownership of more than one species is required before you decide whic is the best. Cuz you know if you guys gave tannies a shot you would LOVE them!!!

Tiger, she's so cute!

I own more than one species and I still think Northerns are the best!

As cool as I think Tannies are, I don't think I'll ever own one. I love my skinks, but there are times I get so busy that I may take them out of their tanks once in a week! :shock: They don't seem to mind too much as long as I give them food and spot clean their messes. However, they stay as sweet as can be no matter how often I handle them. I think if I got a tanny and tried that, I'd be down a couple fingers. :twisted:

Phoebe says she's the best and that's that. Phoebe has spoken and what she says goes. I'm not allowed to argue or question her highness. Do you see that face? Her hissiness would not be happy if I brought another bluey into the house. :shock:

You're biased cuz you have 2 Northerns for a while and youve only had your Kei for a little. I have had Don and Sauce before I had SEb and I think tannies are the best, although, Sauce is my favorite skink :love:

I'm gonna sell my babies pretty cheap, but that comes with me being very picky about new owners!!

And plus, Zach sells mean babies, and runty babies!!! :hehe: No, actually his babies are some of the best looking IJs I've ever seen, especially Jerry :shock: Sassy is amazing looking! :shock:

I like IJs the most, too. Variable coloration, not the largest, not the smallest, decent amount of babies...

Well, if it counts, I was just going to ask why only a few people here have Tanimbars...though everyone jumped onto the Kei boat when they were the hot item! :shake:

Imagine breeding Tanimbars, and then trying to hand raise all the babies! :shock: Actually, that might be some grand fun...
