So... I've completely fallen in love with blue tongue skinks. I don't know how I've only just noticed them!
Of course there are personality differences in individuals of any species, but for those with BTS experience, what would you consider to be the tamest BTS species? From what I've read and seen, I feel most drawn to Northerns--but again, I'm new to blue tongues and don't have firsthand experience.
I also hate the WC market for obvious reasons (obviously CB populations need to come from somewhere, but in mass quantities, it's not sustainable and I can't condone it), and I'm wondering if anyone can recommend good breeders for Northerns (or any species you recommends)? I'd be looking for a baby, since I don't see many BTS in reptile shelters, and my search has really come up dry! bluetongueskinks.net has been an excellent source of information, and while I would absolutely trust them to start their babies off right, their sales page has not been updated in over a year.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
