Rocket Pictures!

Postby RocketRocks » Fri Feb 01, 2008 10:35 pm

Here are some pictures of my skink Rocket. I have more but due to computer problems these are the only ones I could post.
I think he's Indonesian but I'm not sure, maybe someone with more experience can tell me if I'm wrong. :)

Yes, that's poop there. I cleaned it up a few minutes after I took the pictures.

Image

This one is my favorite so far.

Aww, he's a cutie. I'm going with Irian Jaya, or IJ. Does he have a dot on his nose?

I think that dot is from trying to overturn his basking rocks. He must have pushed a little too hard or something. I also have pictures of my brother's skink, Astro, coming soon.

Here's Rocket sitting on top of his log. It's amazing he got up there with those tiny legs. :D
Image

Image

Here he is having a drink of water.
Image

Here he is checking out his Grape n' Greens salad. I was out of crickets that day. He loves grapes.
Image

Rocket digs in!
Image

Image

Image

That bump is Rocket, he wanted to burrow. LOL

Image

He peeks his head out the other end.

That's a good idea, there'll be plenty more pictures of him in the future. :D
How old do you think he is? The lady that was at the pet shop the day I got him was just there for that weekend since the owner was out of town. I haven't had time to talk about him to the owner yet, but I'm sure she can tell me for sure how old he is.

That's about what I was thinking, thanks. The spot will help me tell him apart from his big sister Astro when he gets older. :)

He does look like Rocket. :D Great lookin' skink.

By the way, Rocket is having his first shed right now. (Or at least the first one I've seen him have.) Is there anything I should watch for?
