I have seen many bluetongues like this. 99% have been northern or northern bloodlines. How do you know its definantly eastern? |
well i obviously cant know for sure that it is an eastern but i have plenty just with a bit more patterning that are all purchased from the same area. all have been on license as easterns and sld as easterns, plus they dont show any classic northen signs and the siblings look like classic easterns,

yeah we have a copy of the bluetongue skinks bible  so i sahll key it when i get home i think, imight do a key on all of them as they are very similar but as i said these have all been odd siblings out of a batch. other siblings have been normal, i first purchased the intial blue tongue with these characteristics about 4 years ago. and othr then the ones i have aquired i have not seen others similar.
