Tallulah- Wedding rumours!

[Sputnik]

:D:D:D I might have found a mate for my lovely girl on Reptileforums.uk!
Someone told me they had a male blue tongue skink and he doesn't live too far from us either! Sputnik a very happy girl! :D:D:D

[salzar]

good luck if they mate.

Good luck, you little matchmaker!! LOL Don't forget to have him bring her flowers and large worms on their first date... :-)

[Sputnik]

Oh, I won't. Lets hope it'll really happen. What do you think I should offer the owner for his skink's...well...services? I know with dogs it's usually one of the litter, but not sure what would be appropriate.

[tikichick]

I loaned my Uro out for stud services with one of the litter as "payment". But I don't think he performed as planned. Her girls were a little small and after she saw the size of my guy, she thinks they may still be too young.

Oops. :D

Today's the day! Tallulah's date arrives in 12 hours. I am excited and a little scared at the same time. I will try to get some pictures, if the love birds allow me to. :D

[drache]

[Snaky]

Tallulah's date was a complete flop, lol.
The little skink turned up at lunchtime and little he was. About half her size, despite being about 8 years older. He was gorgeous, but Tallulah did not take to him, in fact she either showed him the cold shoulder or nipped his tail. Not proper bites, just enough to make absolutely sure he wasn't going to try anything. He wouldn't dream of it anyway. He just tried to find a quiet corner away from that big lady with her big mouth. Maybe he was simply an old gentleman, no longer interested in that kind of past time. :(
We agreed to leave them both in peace and try again in a couple of weeks.

[MoJo]

That's too bad. Try again right after she sheds. That seems to get the male's juices flowing!

[drache]

too bad
I know next to nothing about BTs, but I remember that other date mentioned being a flop for the same reason
I wonder whether males are generally smaller, or whether it's just a coincidence

[Stefan-A]

That's a real shame.

[adamanteus]

Too bad, Esther. But you must keep trying!:D
