enclosure size??

[Dev_Man]

What would you reccomend as dimensions for a custom enclosure to house a pair of Blue tongue skinks?? i want them to have plenty of room to move around ..oh and also would it be ok keeping juvis in a large enclosure or would they not feel comfortable?

thanks for the help

A very large enclosure! I would say something in the ballpark of (minimum for a pair of adults) 4ftx2.5ftx1.5ft. (This is length, width and height). I used to have a blue-tongued skink... they are very cute... good luck with them!

The above described enclosure is not bad, but I would make it more like 5 or 6 feet in length. However, in my opinion, blue tongues are better off housed by themselves. One blue tongue would need a minimum size of 18" deep, 36"long, and maybe 18" high, altho height is not too important. I would definetely think about housing them separately. They are not leopard geckos, not quite as social with each other. Not saying it can't work at all, but I wouldn't do it.
On the plus side, they are my absolute favorite lizards! No other lizard makes as good a pet, in my opinion, as the blue tongue.
