I have 9 reptiles that i love a lot but my prefered one, the one that my heart loves the most is that one!

Aww...

He's so cute.....!!! What is he? A skink? And how old is he...?

Linda

He is a monkey tail skink.I bought him in Malaysia.They are very easy to tame.His name is Leonardo.I think he must be around 2 years and a half now.

Oh, it's a monkey-tail skink? I think someone posted a message on this board not so long ago, asking where he could buy one here (Malaysia).

Flavia, could you tell me where did you buy it? It's beautiful, and the next time I bumped into the same question on where to get one, I could help them.

Thanks,
Linda

But they were not happy there.When i bought them they were very aggressive, they wanted to bite me each time i tried to handle them.It took me several weeks to tame them.Now they are sweet and docile but they were not like that.Careful with the Wild Department.Monkey Tails are considered endangered species and they need a special licence to be imported.

Hi Flavia,

Many thanks for your reply. How are you doing in India? Are all the babies, especially the igs, happy there?

Are you coming back to Malaysia again?

Linda

Yes, all my babies are doing great now but my igs took a long time to adjust to their new life here.I dont think ill go back to Malaysia one day.But ill be very happy if i have the oportunity to return to Kuala Lumpur.The weather there is great for my babies, lol!

Welcome Flavia! I also miss this guy since we met up last time.
Great care from u yah.....he seems much more better from pet store last time! Good job!

Leonardo and Rafael are doing great!Eating well, getting fat, i do love them!Thanks for answering my message!)
