My baby girl....
Sapphira the blue tongue skink! Wanted one for more then a year, finally found the right one at the right price. So glad I waited, she is perfect. Never hisses, very sweet. {bluey's rarely bite so didn't add that she never does that either! LOL}

Very nice! What a beautiful skink  I have a blue tongue skink also! In my opinion, they are the perfect reptile pets.

She does the tongue thing all the time but getting it on film is very hard! lOL I will work on it though!
Thanks everyone for the comments, I love her to death and am glad I got her, they really are a great lizard!

Blue tongue skinks are very docile and easy to hold. However, on occasion you will find one with a bit of a mean personality. They can usually be tamed, though.
I totally can't identify BTS. My first thought was northern when I saw your pictures, but now that I look at it, it seems to be more of an IJ? How old is it?
I have some tongue pics/videos of mine that I can upload later. You're right, takes a lot of patience and snaps to get just the right pictures >.<
Once again, gorgeous skink! I hope you two have a lasting friendship and loads of fun.

She is just over a year, whether a northern or irayan I have no idea, she has alot of marking for a Northern.
She is very friendly, when she came she hissed and puffed up but by the next day she had calmed down and now she's a spoiled baby! lOL I take her with me all over...most times we hold her but she does have a case to go into if she wants or we need to use it. The kids hold her, and never an open mouth. I got her from naturecoastexotics.com and she has been healthy and perfect, and was cheaper then in stores around here even with shipping! LOL
Not positive on the girl part...I wanted a girl but sexing them is sooo hard and since I will never breed it doesn't matter she's my baby girl! LOL
