Bubba is about ten years old and the last time I measured he was 23.5 inches long. I don't know his weight, though. Bubba is an IJ.

I think baby tanimbars take the cake for smallest BTS. I can't wait to breed some to see.

Once my guys all reach full size, then I'll post. Mine are all yearlings, so they can't match up.

Baby tannies are apparently about 2 inches long and as thin as a pencil.

I didn't say mine were smaller, I said baby tannies are smaller. Give me 2 months and we can compare again, when I have new babies to cuddle.

Lol, I see someone posting all about their amazing new meraukes, and you turning around and going 'oh ya, well I've got THIS!' Although personally I'm more amazed by your kimberly than any pygmy. Pygmys look like any other skink but with a blue tongue IMO. Give me a speckly beauty any day. BTW, we need more Kimberly pics from you. I wanna see your monster 3mo old.
