Amazing king skinks.

[Snowman]

It's no surprise to anyone that has seen some of WA's wheat belt stimi's or Boodarie red womas, that we have amazing Egernia as well.
This is a breeding project from the lads at Reptile Mania in WA.

very nice looks big.
How big does it grow

 

[Snowman]

About half a meter.

 

[Burnerism]

Awesome skink!!

 

[Wally]

Very cool Snowman.

 

[Tipsylama]

One of the best i have seen.

EDIT: was a long day for me, i thought it was a cunningham lol

 

[Snowman]

One of the best i have seen, still prefer the granitebelt forms though

I don't get it?

 

[caliherp]

I have never been a skink fan, but damn that's a cool looking skink.

 

[Marzzy]

Would make a nice looking albino... Still a great looking skink nice pattern compared to most skinks.

 

[butters]

I think tipsylama has it confused with a cunninghams skink.

 

[bigguy]

Butters I pretty sure you are correct. The pic of the King Skink has an almost identical patterning to the southern Cunninghams

 

[Justdragons]

Wow, Not being a skink man myself ive never seen one of those but they have really nice patterns and quite a good size.. would they be one of the largest skinks in Australia??

 

[Xeaal]

Really lovely animal.

Much bigger and smoother scales... Very different really.

Are king skinks commonly available in the west?

 

[Tipsylama]

Haha, had a long day yesterday, was not paying enough attention to the picture saw it as a cunningham

Never the less, its an absolutely amazing animal

 

[Snowman]

Are king skinks commonly available in the west?

They are available, but not as commonly kept as blueies and bobtails. The most common are the predominately black looking ones. Get a tame one and they really are great pets.

 

[bk201]

Must bring some over in future

 

[Rickyp]

Now thats a cool looking skink

I was happy to get a couple of pairs of these animals, main aim is to get them breeding and get them on the market since all we see are the dull boring charcoal coloured animals at the moment.

cheers.
