    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Glad to be a newbie here. I am also quite new to reptile keeping as well. I recently acquired two Merauke blue tongue skinks. Both adults and are hoping all works out and I will be able to hopefully breed them this fall. I was told the one that Obtained over a month ago was a male and then the other one is hopefully a female. I just hope I don't have two females or two males and then have to track down another one if they are not both the opposite sex like I am hoping.
Just pulling up a chair and hopefully making myself at home here on this cute little-classified listing site. I also figured I'd introduce myself and make my plans or future plans known. I know certainly skink breeding can be a little brutal but I am more than willing to reap the consequences if something out of my expectations was bound to happen.
I am located in Idaho and don't know two many other skink breeders out there or those in existence besides one or two others around the valley.
 
Why thank you. Reptiles certainly do make the world go round. At least Meraukes are a little less finicky with breeding and I don't have to cool them or send them to bruminate like Northern BTS. I orginally wanted Northerns but Northerns are not easy to come by where I am located and the indos are more common to come by now a days. Even if I had to do a whole lot of digging to get the two that I did and it was just a matter of luck I guess because I had to travel to get my the questionable male that I have that they said was sexed, but I have yet to see sperm plugs but then again it's past breeding season for 2018 so I hope maybe I will try again for babies for hopefully 2019.
