Blue- Tongued Skink

Most people think of skinks are being small, skittish, and fast lizards. The large, slow, and calm Blue-Tongued Skink does not at all fit that image!

I wish I had a picture of a skink with it's tongue sticking out, but I don't. Your should look it up though, they are really cool!

Blue tongued skinks are friendly lizards. I know of someone who even slept with his skink! These lizards should have at least a twenty gallon tank. They eat insects and small mice, just as bearded dragons do.

These interesting lizards make fun and entertaining pets, since they are so tame. And those tongues sure are eye catching!
