      Aw, I felt that!!! How long have you got them? Are you keeping them together? If they are together, maybe they won't warm up to humans (kinda like birds). I've got mine for approx. 7 months and she's only just starting to get used to me 😅

    • @incognitomode2616
      @incognitomode2616 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      Most people don’t keep BTS together because they absolutely hate each other. It’s more that they’ll kill their tank mate rather than them not warming up to you.
      Outside of putting a male and a female together for breeding purposes, two BTS in the same enclosure is never a good idea. No matter if it’s a female female or male female housed together, they will fight, often to the death.
      Two males housed together will of course try to kill one another regardless of what you do.

    I have a colony of 3(2f, 1m), and I have them in a 150 gallon Paludarium-like enclosure. 1 foot of it has water that barely goes over the gravel and the divider is covered in a creeping vine and I use a mini water pump under the gravel, some pvc covered in stones to filter the water, as well as to create a nice little waterfall effect, and it works great for them and I don't need to do water changes but I still replace some of it every week and the water simply isn't deep enough for them to drown and it helps keep a higher humidity, even with a mesh lid for airflow. They love the water section as much as they love the cliffside wall I built for them.
    These skinks are awesome and I whole heartedly recommend them.

    I've been waiting for this video! I picked up one of these guys at an expo, and I have not been disappointed. These guys are incredible display animals! With regular handling they can tame down, but honestly, as Clint said, even without handling them they are so entertaining. Definitely a very underrated skink. They utilize every inch of their enclosure, mine loves climbing on the screen lid, foam background, cork bark, and burrowing under sphagnum moss at night to sleep. They appreciate vines and wood of all diameters and textures. If you put something in their enclosure, they will use it. I have mine in an 18x18x24 exo terra enclosure. Front opening cages are definitely the way to go with these guys. I also recommend placing the cage by somewhere you will sit or spend a lot of time; I have my skink's tank next to a chair and he will come over and visit me often when sitting in it. If you ever see these guys at an expo, I highly recommend them!

A couple days ago when I went for my visit they had a big old tank full of these guys and I honestly could not help myself. I came home with a male and a female and I'm hoping to start up my own little brood of these amazing fellows. They are so fearless, curious and active in their enclosure and it's absolutely so rad, they're quickly becoming my favorite reptile.

    I used to keep and breed them for a few years - about 7 years ago now. Now looking back I think they were some of the best of all of my pet lizards, definitely in the top five. :) You're right, they are amazing. And yes, they aren't difficult to breed at all. I'd warn against keeping them in groups though, I had a male and two females, and the bigger female kept bullying the smaller one, to the extent of biting off the end of her tail. I had to separate them, obviously. Needless to say you should always separate the young (better still when they are eggs -but those aren't always easy to find) from the adults or else the 'kids' will most certainly get eaten or injured. One great thing about this species is that it's easy to tell their gender even at a pretty young age (males have bright yellow pads on their hind 'feet' - kind of like yellow 'heels') - which is a blessing if you've ever tried to determine the gender of a skink or in lizards in general.

    I rarely see these lizards at our school, and it's so cool when you see them. Even when making the slightest movement or sound will scare them away. They are very interesting lizards.

    Hey Clint !
    I just wanted to say that this is by far my favorite Chanel ! Highly educational and fun. This is how I discovered my love for reptiles. I currently have a crested gecko and bearded dragon. I really think that TH-cam needs more channels like this.
    Thanks !

I would LOVE it if you did an episode about them, I have one that I got this year and I love him, I'm definitely going to be getting more to add to my collection. They are so great they have a nick-name "the bearded dragon of North America"...that alone should tell you they are pretty awesome, and, they are beautiful!! Please look into them!

    There are lots of that here in Philippines and I got bitten so hard way back 23 years ago. I wounded my thumb. Emeral Tree Skin in the wild are anti-social and doesn't like being approach by people. There are also brown color. In Cebu, the name of that lizard is Tabili.

    Wtf. We can always see that lizard here in the Philippines. I appreciate you guys who showed great love to them. Based on my experience, these lizards are harmless and afraid of humans. There were many cases where I encountered such lizard when I climbed a coconut tree. They just ran away so fast. Btw, we called them "tabili".
    Edit: We can also see rare species or animals that are endemic here in the Philippines. It includes Philippine Sailfin Lizard (ibid), Giant Golden-Crowned Flying Fox (kabog), Mindanao Flying Lizard (hambubukag)

This is tragic for me as I dont currently have the room for an active lizard enclosure and Ive not moved out due to corona essentially shutting down university life here in Britain. This is such an oppertunity aswell as you say they dont show up captive bred often! I hope somebody picks them up and gains joy out of them. Or perhaps I might just finally muster the energy to get rid of the sheer level of junk and clutter in my bedroom to make space for a skinky housemate. They are absolutely incredible little guys
