hemisphaeriodon gerrardii

Hey everyone, My Pink Tongue Skink has what I like to call a 'tegu neck', that is the space between his head and forelimbs (?) is kinda puffy and large, like a tegu. From what I recall he's had this since I've gotten him but I believe it's gotten larger, also I'm not even sure if there's even...

hey everyone, it's my first time brumating my reptiles, and it's been a learning curve so far. I've dropped the heat, in time not temperature, and taken away about 2 hours of lighting for everyone. But I don't know if they are actually 'brumating' or not, I say this because both my Diamond...

Hey everyone, So I finally got my pink tongue skink, and admittedly I did get it from a pet store, although a reptile one. The guy who sold me the skink (said he used to keep them) said that all they needed was banana, dog/cat food and snails, and I believe that's all it's been fed on. This...

hey everyone, Going to be getting a pink tongue skink very soon hopefully, I'm starting to look at all the bits I need for the tank. I was wondering if I could an opinion on a couple of things; -I'm leaning towards getting a glass enclosure, purely because I am considering putting live plants...

Hi Guys, I have a Pink Tongue Skink, he/she is only young and has an attitude problem. I was under the impression that a lot of Pink Tongue Skinks were like this, but alas, whilst picking up a new reptile on Saturday (not a PTS), I was able to interact with a wonderful little PTS with the same...

Hi guys, So, I found a massive slug in my garden the other day and retrieved it for Pinch, my pink tongue skink, only to discover a multitude of creatures running all over it. Was reminiscent of a horror scene. https://vimeo.com/183452779 Threw it back in the garden and used the power of...

Hi all, Due to risk of disease etc I very rarely have people over and are even less likely allow people into our herp room. However you cannot get bugs from photos so.....

Looking at getting a pink tongue skink, and had a couple of questions that many caresheets seem to answer differently. More of a snake person so my knowledge on skinks is pretty limited, so if anyone owns any or had any experience with them input is greatly appreciated :) 1) tank size, is a 2ft...

Hi guys! I've been trying to find care sheets and such on Pink Tongue Skinks but haven't really been able to find any! The interwebs seem to have general articles but no definitive husbandry requirement sheets. Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting this information? Also...

Hi all, So basically, a few changes have occurred. We might not be moving at all (whoo) or be moving to a smaller house than we thought. This means that sadly, and olive python may not be a realisable goal as of now. So I'm seizing the opportunity for lizards. I'm looking for something that: -...

Came across this lizard in Lamington National Forest (SE QLD) this weekend. At first I thought (and maybe correctly) that it was a juvenile blue tongue lizard. The shape, striping and tongue color (blue) were all consistent with what I know of the reptile. BUT, the tongue was forked and quickly...

Hey everyone, So I'm in the process of planning a enclosure for my Woma and maybe one to stack on top for a future scaly friend and was looking for some feed back to see if I'm on the right track. So planning to build a 1200x600x450mm (LxWxH) from ply wood, 12mm back, top and sides and 18mm...

Hey, I want to start adding dog food to my blue tongue's diet. He isnt eating very well and he is getting skinny. I tried dog food in the past and he really liked it. "Advance" puppy food was recommended to me but i noticed that all their dog food contains rice. Could i feed him a chicken and...

I was just reading another thread which got me thinking about how many species of snakes I've spotted in my yard. On an acreage block in SEQ, I have seen a couple of RBBs pass through. There was a communal nest of yellow-faced whip snakes under the thicket adjacent to the house. I once removed...

Hey all. I flew up to NSW last week for some herping around the Hunter Valley with a few mates. After getting off the plane, we went for a poke around some spots in Newcastle. First finds were a young Marsh Snake and She-oak Skink. Marsh Snake (Hemiaspis signata) by Matt Clancy Wildlife...

I don't own this pic, it was posted on an airbrush forum as a reference pic - they're debating what it actually is - some are saying a blue tongue, others have suggested a savannah monitor. Can anyone confidently ID this guy ? I can't even tell you if it's exotic or not.

I got bitten by my coastal carpet python for the first time ever today! He is around 1.2m but I have only had him for a few months - he is my first snake and I had always been so scared of getting bitten! Now I don't know why! It didn't hurt at all, but I'm lucky he let to straight away...

Hi all, today I was lucky enough to get my hands on a beautiful pink tongue skink off a person that couldn't keep it anymore, I've researched a bit about the basics of caring for them but have found that there's not a heap of info out there and that the few sites I have seen have had some pretty...

I have loads of questions, hopefully everyone can add what they know. first, how many types of blueys are there? how different from each other are they? did I hear about a Tasmanian bluey? What temperatures should they have for what times of the year and seasons and at what age should they...

Thought I would post some pictures. The first is of my new little female beardie, the next is an update on my sub adult GWD who I am thinking is a girl. and who came to me suffering MBD and couldn't climb. Her legs are back to normal and even some of her toes are looking less deformed. Then my...

Hi guys "N" girls :) On 5th my SAHD laid 4 eggs, I have read that they can have multiple clutches in a season so would like to know how long on average it will be before she is gravid again? She is has been powering down her food ever since she laid her clutch, the little pig :) Thanks Trench...

Hey guys. I recently bought myself a baby pink tongue skink. I'm not sure how old it is but it still has a blue tongue. My question is entirely about feeding. I've read online that they almost exclusively eat snails and slugs and shouldn't be fed frozen veggies due to some chemical. What can I...

I was walking from my car earlier, and spotted this little fella, he's a cute little bluey (I hope he's a bluey), I went to pick him up, he was actually alright to handle, but I looked at his belly, and I don't know much about blue tongue's, but have a look at the picture, I fed him a few...

I have a Pink tongue skink and some are saying I need UV and others are saying no? My point is the skink hides all day and only comes out at night during the warmer months so UV seems to be a waste but he comes out for a few hours during the day in cooler times, but only to bask for short...
