    Okay, clearly pink tongues are incredible, but do you think that they make a better pet than the blue tongue??

    One time I girl in high school called me a skink as an insult. When I asked if if she meant to say another word that IS an insult and sounds very close to skink. She said no, she meant to call me a skink. And I took that as the highest compliment because skinks are AMAZING

    Pink Tongues evidence much more personality and thinking (personal choice-making) than I ever expected. I've lived with mind for about 6 weeks (motivated largely by this video, lucky to find a quality breeder near me). She's got her own opinion on things, is learning to trust me, approach me, and very quickly learned when and where the food is provided each day. I appreciate a pet who comes willingly (as opposed to my cornering and grabbing) and whose affection is not a given (as with a puppy). The relationship is very cool and continually developing. My 10 year old Northern Blue Tongue obviously knows me well already, and is an amazing companion. This baby Pink Tongue promises to be the same, but in her own very unique way.

    Fun fact: Here in Germany they are called "Schneckenskink", literally "snail skink".
    My local pet store at the town I lived before actually had two of these, and it was the first time I really saw any skink at all. Instantly loved them.
    Had I known then how rare they were I would have probably got one because where I live know I haven't seen any so far. But blue-tongue skinks are really rare here in Germany as well, in contrast to ball pythons, which it seems like you can get at your local grocery store. lol

    I've been watching SO many reptile videos, a lot of which have been from your page, while simultaneously heavily researching what reptile I think would be my best first entry reptile. Arkansas is a rather humid location and so a lot of lizards immediately become harder to maintain with lighting, and housing plus due to a lack of a local reptile community, feeding costs. I wanted something handleable and personable, calm, yet not too tiny where I may be anxious interacting with them, especially around my other animals. Blue tongues were ALMOST perfect, but then I found this video. I immediately found full care guides, necessary information, budgeted, and located some breeders to look into, and have firmly decided this will be the perfect first lizard that hits all the boxes. Thank you so much for these types of videos and for encouraging informed decisions that will ensure proper care and an enjoyable life and bond for the reptile. Keep it going!

    The first pet reptile I wanted was a blue-tongue skink (decided I don't have the space or time for one yet and got some snakes instead) but this lil guy sounds even better! Skinks in general are really hard to come by in Finland where I live, but I'll definitely find out if there are people who have these. Reptile enthusiasts here usually go to expos all the way in Sweden or Germany if they're looking for something as rare as this.

    I’ve had a blue tongue and they’re amazing but it would be rad to have a skink that likes to climb too. Do you know if they enjoy eggs and canned dog food like the blues?

    We were looking at a Blue Tongued Skink for our next reptile. I think we may change gears and look for a pink tongued instead. Great Video! My mom has always been against having any reptiles in the house which was disappointing as I have loved reptiles my whole life, snakes especially, and want to work as a herpetologist and reptile educator. Your videos as well as Emily's at Snake Discovery (and a few others) helped her see them as awesome creatures instead of something scary. Your rating system especially helped in our decision to get our first Corn Snake. We now have several species of snakes, and other reptiles (and yes, my mom loves them all!) and I've started my own channel as well. I don't know that my dad and I ever would have convinced my mom to get our first reptiles without the work you and other educators do. Thank you so much! - Annaliese

    Also just a suggestion, but maybe when you mention the diet of the animal, perhaps you should mention the percentages of what kinds of foods should make up their diets.

    Hello! My name is Kat and ive been watching your videos for about a week now. (I need to go through and like them all lol)
    I just wanted to let you know how profoundly you have helped me with my love of reptiles. I've always thought they were fascinating animals (specifically snakes but i also like many lizards) but i was terrified of getting bitten. Lately I've wanted to get a pet that's more laid back that i could keep in my room so I started out with your top 5 best pets for beginners and from there i just started watching all of your videos. You really made me feel better about snakes esspecially and cleared up a lot of misconceptions I had. Your attitude about the animals and how positive you are is really heartwarming. Its good there is someone like you(And snake discovery) out there to educate people on these pets. I veiw reptiles at the pitbull of the pet world. They have a bad rep. I now know that's just all wrong. I plan on getting a ball python or a gargoyle/crested gecko. I really do want that big snake hug though. Would you suggest me trying to tackle a boa for my first try? Or should i start small.
    Thank you for doing these kinds of videos. I really like the super educational ones. Not to say your entire channel isn't educational but the ball python genetics series was particularly good. Genetics is My favorite part of biology. I love animals and in fact I'm planning on becoming a biologist(and writer).
    I know this comment might get lost. That's ok. Just know that no matter how many likes or views your videos get someone will always appreciate what you do. You're an amazing teacher.

    These skinks are specialized snail-eaters. Please do not feed them anything else. :( Just because they ARE hardy skinks and they WILL (sometimes) accept other stuff you give them, it doesn't mean it's good for them.
