I'm looking for a bit of help finding a breeder for either land mullets, or shingleback skinks. I've been searching for a while and haven't found anything online. Any leads?

FOUND ONE!!!!!! I go bush bashing on a regular occasion and this guy is the FIRST ever animal apart from the odd bird, I have come across. I had actually got out of my car and walked a while so I just bought a mountain bike, so from now on I will go on foot. :D I found this lacy while...

I was sitting at home late Sunday avo when my brother walked into my house and said "Whats that thing suppose to be hanging on the wall, is it a rubber skink or something...it looks pretty real" I look up 12ft as i have a very high celing to find my beloved skink nearly on the ceiling. After...

As everyone knows, there is an incredible diversity of skinks in Australia. The species list at the moment exceeds 370 species. More species are added each year as a result of new discoveries or the splitting of species complexes. One of my favourite groups of skinks are members of the genus...

I had a strange thing happen, yesterday i went out to my rats (20 odd breeders), all alive and healthy. They are all kept in a shed, so nothing can get in. Anyway i went out there this morning and basically about 80% of my breeders were dead and looked like they'd beeen attacked. They were all...

He was sunning himself at a garden centre they went to. Is this common?

Went out for a bushwalk yesterday around springbrook to try my luck at some herping. Weather wasn't the best and rained most the time, only found a few lizards (only got one ok photo of a land mullet), heaps of rock wallabies on the drive back home and some rats right up the top of a mountain...

Hello I'm interested in purchasing a variety of lizards. If anyone can help me out with pink tongues, land mullet, painted dragons or spencers monitors I'd be most grateful. Please contact me at [email protected] Thanks Jason

Photos to share with you guys A land mullet (Egernia major) that I have been tracking for some time. Finally found it. Sorry second photo aint that good in focus but it can be hard some times when holding a camera in one hand and a wild reptile that is approx. two feet long in the other by your...

As I mentioned in my previous post, my wife and I spent 10 days in Brisbane in January. Most days were wet but there was a bit of sun on one weekend. We decided to take advantage of it and visit the Lamington Plateau with one trip to the Binna Burra area and one trip to the O'Reilly's area...

Has anyone crossed a bluey or pink tongue or land mullet???

I’ll try this for a second time, considering the first time I tried, my post failed as I clicked Submit :( All wild shots are taken in-situ. Saproscincus challengeri These little guys are very common at Lamington NP, but also quite cryptic. They are usually only found when movement gives...

does anyone have any good herping pics they could share or storys from out herping. if so please share them as thye would be cool to see:) here are a few of mine

Alecia and I spent 24 hours up at the Lamington Plateau with some (human) friends of ours, looking for some (animal) friends of ours. We found a whole bunch of stuff. Let me know if I've mis-IDed anything. We saw non-reptilian critters too. You can have a look at those pics on my blog...

AS per the header. If you could be a reptile what would you be? i'd be a dart frog. ...silent killer.

After the Ugliest Species thread, a member PM'ed me about Land Mullets. So once again i thought i would show off my dear Marcia, the friendliest Land Mullet in town. She really does like sitting in your arms or up on your shoulder. Simone.

Ok, there are some stunning species out there. What do you find to be the ugliest?? To keep it simple its just Snake and Lizard. Mine:- Snake=Dunmals Lizard=Cunninghams

first land mullet of this season. Unfortunately he was deep in the lantana so this was the best shot I could get.

Springbrook Warrie track about 2 kilometers clockwise Saturday 29 September

I've been mostly sticking to snakes so this might be completely normal and i don't know about it ... but i was walking to my boyfriends place the other day and on my way i saw a primarily "gold" coloured blue tongue. It was pretty average sized as far as i know of blue tongues and definately...

Chasing last seasons juvies or adults or an option to put my name down for this years babies.

Last week I posted about possible sexual dimorphism in Gidgee Skinks. I think I was way off the mark, the white underside must have been a precursor to shedding because now my male? has a salmony colour underbelly as well. After his shed that is. Anyway I thought I'd try a method of sexing...

Ok, well i'm at a bit of a loss this morning- had a meeting with a specialist this morning who advised me that my blood count (white cells) were likely falling as a result of a possible allergy to something. We sat down and wrote out things that i did often and picked out those which were...

I am new here and thanks to my trusty mate, not mentioning any names "cough Njlocksmith couch", i made abit of an entrance with hype over my reptile. Yeah i like him. But i'd love to know what other people have. What reptile do you call your pet? They all seem to have some unique character...

Currumbin Sanctuary Pics Was down at the Gold Coast on the weekend and dropped into Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. Thought I'd post some pics... From what I can remember the herps they had were: Merten's Water Monitors, Scrub Pythons, Land Mullets, File Snakes, Freshwater Crocs, King...

Hi Team, Whilst it is still fresh in your minds we would like to get suggestions as to how to improve the show next year. Whilst many may not be possible 300 heads are always better than 1 and we want your feedback. Yes, the animals did get stressed and we need to address that. I ended...
