One person I talked to said that they kept a small colony in a 40 gallon breeder aquarium with a good half a foot of mulch but hardly ever saw them because they were always dug in. He told me that when he broke the aquarium down for a thorough cleaning, he had found a couple of clumps of dessicated eggs so I guess that means they're egg layers and not live bearers like the blue tongues are. He told me he fed them pretty exclusively on crickets so I don't know if they'd take fruit and veggies as well. I'd be interesting to find out. If you get them, post up some pics and let us know what works for you.
That's really cool, thanks guys!
I still really want one, and I asked about them at Tinley, and one guy told me that they are very seasonal and usually WC or CH. They are pretty hard to find apparently. So if anyone has any leads on any please let me know. They're really cool skinks.

If I don't get any leads on one, I'm going to buy a Schneider's Skink. Maybe I'll have a fire in my future.

Thanks everyone!!
