Well ive been going to this reptile shop in my area and they have a black and white blue tongue what sort of bluey is this does it need to be on a license and i might buy it and can you put up picture and ill see if it looks like that:shock::evil:

yes you will need a recreational wildlife licence if you are in Queensland. It sounds different being black and white. A black blue tongue is hypermelanistic and a 'white' one would be albino.

I think he means it was one bluey, black and white colouration :S

Any particular markings that were black or white? Was it striped?
