Hi, I am just wondering how many people are working with Prehensile Tailed Skinks, Corucia Zebrata in Canada, I know of a couple of people out there but I am really curious as to how many PTS there are up here.

Thanks
Devon

I used to own one several years ago, when they were still more affordable. He was a doll. His name was George and he was an interesting little guy. I miss him.

I had kept a few for quite awhile a few years back,sold them to a friend (who still has them and acctually had success breeding them with one baby ) I regret selling them,they are really interesting to watch,some have devilish attitudes and a bite from one of these guys is like slamming your hand in a car door ..with teeth!while others are quite easy to handle.They do have the odd and rather gross nature of eating their own droppings though,, :medpuke: they are harder to find now,but i have seen a few for sale in a local pet shop recently.

I wonder where the pet shops are getting them. I have managed to get my collection up to 3.6 hoping for some babies all unrelated as well so any babies can form a new group.

I used to have a monkeytail skink which i named Miss. MonkeyTail, however i sold "her" to a friend of mine who had a colony. She turned out to be a male. WHOOPS!! He has a bunch of them and they have bred and everything!
