Well I finally got around to take a few pics of my li'l fire skink I received from Lowell Shaw. Had one of these beauties before, but he was quite the biter. I saw Lowell had an ad on the TARAS forums so I asked him about his fire skinks and we arranged for me to get one at the TARAS show last weekend. He held back a nice big and beautiful one for me.
I really like this girl (I think it's a girl). She's a bit squirmy, but after a bit of handling, she calms right down. Once she's had enough, she gives a little nip and I put her away. I take her outside for a bit of sun. She appears to be eating mealies and wax worms. I don't feed anything crickets.
I'm really enjoying this girl. I only wish I had picked up another one! I'm totally in shock, that Lowell did not sell out of these totally at the TARAS show. You guys don't know what you're missing. I think a nice baby CB would be an excellent pet, which is why I got her.
Anyway, here's some pics of this beauty. I'm not a good photographer so excuse the bluriness.
Some branch shots.

Her beautiful face. Look at the red, and the black stripes under the chin and the absolute gold scales on the back. There's just a few, but WOW! These fire skinks are absolutely the most beautiful skinks in the world.

A body shot, look carefully you can see the bluish spots on her tail.

An absolutely great buy for a beautiful, and cute li'l pet lizard.
Thanks a ton Lowell!!
