One thing I'd like to add, some blue-tongued skinks are just not as nice as people expect. My skink, for example, just is a pill and loves to hiss at me, display her tongue, waste, and attempt to threaten me sometimes when I first get her out until she realizes she's fine and calms down quickly afterwards. She has never bitten me, so it's all a bluff, but I can't say that's the same for other skinks. I've had her since she was a tiny baby, but I've met other skinks who have the same behavior. So, just be careful as well to other people who don't realize this possibility. :)

I've always wanted a blue tongue, but they're so expensive. My local pet store has a juvenile that was originally $300. But nobody would buy him/her. It's been a couple of months. I went back to that pet store yesterday, and the blue tounge is still there, but get this: They cut the price *IN HALF.* Now I want this skink more then ever. I've done tons of research. Wish me luck trying to convince my parents.

I just realized it was a baby blue tongue skink. I really hope someone finds it because I’m 100% sure it was someone’s pet 😭💔

when it comes to indonesian blie tongues id say the classic indonesian is mostly wild caught. but meraukes are becoming more availible in captive collections. so if your looking for an indonesian species i would recommend the merauke. norterns are almost 100 per cent of the time captive bred. since capturing them from the wild is higly prohibited in australia

@@rattings9121 just because you do that and they survive doesn't mean that is the correct way to care for them... Because it's really not. Especially feeding wild caught prey items is one of the worst things you could do and, depending on where you live and what exact species you feed, illegal. These inverts could possible have been in contact with pesticides or other toxic chemicals, they could be sick and they are definitely riddled with parasites. Also we shouldn't strive for our animals to simply survive but to thrive. Furthermore care means a lot more than just feeding them. What about enclosures, bedding, decor, heating, lighting, UVB/A, thermometers, hygrometers, solarmeters, enrichment, vet care etc.?

@@rattings9121 i have no idea how you did that with just 350 pounds but good for you. But none of that takes away from my inital argument. Blue-tongue skinks are commonly kept poorly, because they can survive almost anything but a good elaborate enclosure, a healthy varied diet, enrichment and vet appointments are more work and money than many people are willing to spend on their pet reptile. These lizards are relatively big, live long and are extremly intelligent. I spend more than 2000€ per year for one skink, including everything, except the enclosure itself because that was a one time purchase. From all of the species I have kept or worked with throughout my life, they definitely are one of the more expensive and time consuming species. I think this even showes in the literature. The only really good book about them, that isn't full of misinformation costs between 70-80€.

Thank you, this very helpful! Took over the care of my daughter's geckos and BTS when she left for college. I'm trying to find out as much as possible. I think we accidentally purchased a wild-caught Merauke. MicMac is very skittish and hates being held/touched. Terrified. But I'm trying. Any advice for that process? I feel bad about not providing the right humidity till learning about it now. When feeding, how much food do I offer? He's an adult by now. I think I'm feeding too little too often. What's a serving of protein for instance if feeding 3 X per week? Finally, Mic hisses a lot and no reptile site ever mentions that. He gets very pale occasionally too. Thanks again. I'll use your affiliates for what I need.

The enclosure for an adult bts shouldn't be any smaller then 5 feet with appropriate depth and hight! I think even a 75 gallon is way to small. They are big lizards, that will use all the space and enrichment if provided. With aspen and other dry substrates you risk dry belly scales, which northerns are very prone to, so make sure the bedding isn't to dry. Also I'd definitely recommend using UVB, blueys are diurnal animals, meaning they naturally bask.

Are wild caught skinks releasable if they're released where they were caught? The same with other species.

not sure if youre even going to see this comment, but if you were to build a custom enclosure for a blue tongue skink, what would the requirements be? (mostly asking because my grandfather loves helping me with my animals :)

Do you know what the difference between northern skinks and Indonesian skinks? Is one better than the other? I’ve always had my heart set on a northern but the only places I’ve been able to find them are the occasional expos that take place near me, so I’m more thinking Indonesian now

I am trying to convince my dad to let me get a reptile! Skinks are a high contender at the moment. Any tips would be appreciated! (For caring for skinks that is.) I live in North Carolina if that helps. I know humidity is a big thing and it’s pretty dang humid here. (I’m waiting to find out how much space we have available, might completely ruin the chance.)

I’ve always wondered how much your electricity bill goes up when you get a pet that requires a basking light and a UVB light all day.

The only thing I don’t understand. Is the humidity levels and having a cool and warm side. I know like we need a heat lamp or a UVB heat lamp but I don’t know how to make one side colder then the other

I'm Indonesian, live in Indonesia and I own Irian Jaya Blue Tounge Skink. Do you have any idea what the best substrate for my BTS is? Do you think I still need to make the enclosure humid, since here is the country where it comes from.

If anyone is looking for a great breeder Dave’s Skinks in Chicago is awesome. He has a great website to look at care and his babies. He specializes in Northerns and Irian Jayas. We love our Indonesian dude from him😊

Are blue tongue skinks sociable enough to go to the store with you? I want a reptile (not a bearded dragon tho) to go places with me because of my anxiety disorder. Would they be okay to go places with you and being handled for a while

Are you able to keep skins in box enclosures? My red foot tortoise is going to quickly outgrow its 50x32in enclosure & I hope to rescue a northern skink in the future & would love to repurpose this enclosure!
