If I'm correct, you saw that in REPTILES magazine from a little bit ago. It stated that the albino and melanistic offspring were bred and born in Australia, and I have no clue of anybody outside of Australia who works with them, not saying there isn't any. My bet if anybody does, they would be in Europe. There are some morphs available in small number in the United States, such has hypo, "white" phase (where the skink is born normal, but as it ages, it becomes increasingly solid white), and some others.

After talking to some breeders about the subject I learned that the only way to get an albino blue tongue or a centralian in the USA is to personally know a breeder. Ive been told they NEVER hit the market for the general public, ive have seen one centralian for sale and it was over 5 years ago going for thousands. Look into breeders in Europe, you will have to pay ALOT in shipping but its more likely you will find one there.You could get two whitephase blue tongues and try crossing genes and what not, theres a chance something could happen...u never know?
