Hey Popp,
I am definitely interested in a pair.
Could you email me some pic's and explain the price difference.
I guess the dearer ones are better for some reason..so I would be leaning towards those.
Thanks

 

[africancichlidau]

Don't lean too far towards 'em Greebs, you'll fall over

Ohhh, I did miss the 'if' first time around.
Fingers crossed Phil! We can't have you living a life of leisure! No rest for the wicked and all of that... :lol:

 

[africancichlidau]

No rest for the wicked eh? That is obviously why I can get all the rest I need

 

[popp]

Ive just added pics of some cunninghams babies & dad more pics to come but it gives you an idea of what im talken about.
Greebo if you want some more pics let me know.Sexing young lizards im not to sure about if any one has or knows someone who can sex please let me know.

 

[saikrett]

what are there growth rates like?
my blue tongues are almost 50cm after 1 year!!

 

[Greebo]

It's near impossible to determine the sex of young lizards.It's a bit of a lottery.I'm going to check out these pics.

 

[roadkill5000]

ive heard for larger skinks such as blueys,cunninghams,land mullets....
that if you run your finger down the tail (near the vent) you can feel bumps
bumps=male
no bumps=female
i am not sure if this is a good method or not as i have never tried it myself

 

[saikrett]

I was told that the best way to find there sex is to put them together in spring and watch what happens!!!

 

[africancichlidau]

You mean see what the male does with his bumps?

 

[roadkill5000]

i dont think hatchlings would do anything
im not sure bout this but i think most hatchlings are born in summer anyway :? so you would have to wait a year to be able to sex them

 

[saikrett]

so true,
i've got yearly bluetongues that i don't know the sex of.
How old should they be before they breed? (if male & female!)

 

[roadkill5000]

i think it depends on how much food and water there is along with heat but im not sure :?

 

[saikrett]

what depends on food and water?

 

[roadkill5000]

if they breed

 

[roadkill5000]

i think

 

[saikrett]

i've heard that.
The guy i was first geting my turtles off said they didn't breed because it was too dry.
