Land Mullets i believe would eat the pink tongue skink. I don't believe it is possible.

there is no reason why you cant breed Tiliqua with Hemisphaeriodon (Pink Tongue) and also Engernia's . As they are all related to the Scincidae family. And I have proven this by breeding Hosmers and Cunnighams. And the same when I bred occipitalis with nigrolutea. Anything is possible

Why would you purposely cross breed 2 different species or even 2 different genuses? Theres no moral in doing something like that not to mention how illegal it is.

The only reason i'd ever consider it, would be out of curiosity. Then keep them aside as pets and not sell them so as not to currupt pure line breeding.

But in saying that i still wouldnt cross em in the first place

also dazza u said u bred one tiliqua species to another and an egernia species to another egernia,that doest prove pinkys crossed blueys or landmullets or whatever,why breed a tropical reptile to a temperate reptile,and a semi arid tropical reptile to an alpine reptile,how did u cycle them,where is the proof,what did u do with the offspring?????????????
im sorry i dont see any value in crossing species,there no improvement on pure species,its just a waste in my book
