Freckles Bright New Skin Pics

Postby Shellyjean » Thu Jun 14, 2007 10:49 am

Freckles just finished shedding this morning, so we got out in the sunshine and took some pics. I "thought" we would try for some flower pics but I think I'll need a couple hundred more to find one I'd think was good enough to enter in a contest. :roll: But here's a few we took today.

"Ok, ok, stop putting me back here. I'll pose for 5 seconds so make it quick!"
Image

"There...I sniffed it. Ya happy now?"

She even gave me the obligatory tongue shot!

Freckles is such a photogenic skink. You'll have no problem getting a good contest photo. In fact, any one of those would do quite well.

No, you can't eat my Freckles Lisa! :ahahah: He kinda would look good sitting on top of a dish of ice cream though, wouldn't he?

Thanks all!

I wish I hadn't been so sick right before he shed. He was the freakiest color. He was all pink and gray. He looked like a ghost skink. :shock: But it was short lived and I didn't even get a pic of it. :doh:

Ummm Ian, you're going to have to translate for me..what is OSRM???

Of all of the blue tongues I have seen on this page since I've been a member, I think Freckles is in the top 3 for the best looking. I just love her colors. Beautiful!

Thanks Russman for the HUGE compliment! There are so many pretty ones, I think I'd even have a tough time saying she was in the top 3. Nah, probably not, but then I'm "mom". :lol: Funny thing is, we bought her as an "extra" when we got our first, and she's actually the stunner of the two.

Littlefoot, I have a million of those too. I finally gave up "trying" to catch it and now I seem to get them more easily. Also I think I'm learning their reactions to noise, movement, wind. I'm getting better at timing it right. Outside their little tongues go wild! :D

Jeanne!!! It's so good to hear from you! I've been bad and not emailing ANYONE lately, been sick and blah. I see you've still got cages left. Might have to make another trip up your way. :wink:

Wings just shed last night, so I have to get some new photos of him too in the next couple of days.

:lol:

Don't worry, he'll turn ghost-like before he sheds every time.

And you'd better enter the contest! Those are all great!
