Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hey folks.. long story short I'm looking to add a member to my household and I think I've settled on a BTS as the new addition. I'm fluent in Google and have done a ton of research and am still finding conflicting opinions on husbandry (everything from temps to diet) not to mention the profound scarcity of skink-heavy breeding operations.

There is an expo up here at the end of next month and I intended to make my purchase there if there's any available, considering it's winter and I'd rather not ship.

My question: what's your favorite BTS website/caresheet/breeder? And up to date! I just want to know the info I'm using is trustworthy - considering how much BS is out on the web.

Thanks in advance,

My favorite reference is Zach Griffith's website Bluetongueskinks.net

His site is home to many Tiliqua keepers, hobbyists, and breeders. It has probably the largest and most detailed care sheet ever produced for Blue Tongue Skinks, and the forum is filled with casual BTS pet owners, as well as some hard core keepers with multiple animals and years of experience.

(I prefer the Australian Northern and Eastern BT's for a first time animal.)

Good luck with your acquisition.
