Jennii is going to show how she handles Charlie, the Prehensile-Tailed
Skink. If I can even find her. If we can find her. Oh she's on the ground today.
She's usually very territorial of her cage, and gets Jennii.
Oh, she's going to be okay today. She's actually pretty chill today. Probably because I just went in there and
grabbed her instead of giving her time to try and - Bite you? Give me a good chomp.
So she's still a baby, right? Yes, so her head will get about as big as my fist, so
it'll kind of show you that she has quite some time to grow. Yeah so, the
really fun thing about these guys is that their tail just like any other
lizard can fall off, but unlike a lot of other lizards will not grow back. But you
can see the prehensile, if I like try to grab it from, well not grab it, but if I put
my tip, my fingers around it, she wants to grab it, so you always got to be gentle
with that. Their bites are pretty vicious, but at her size they they don't hurt.
They barely even break the skin.
She's a little dirty right now. She dug down. You can see on the other
side, she's got a little dirt. Yeah, dirty girl.
Set you down for a second.
Oh, she doesn't like that. She's alright, I got her. Now she does have a pretty
good grip but I definitely don't want to - Make her fall. Yeah, because she might get a
little bold and, but you can see she's got
pretty good claws on her.
Okay.
You can see she's pretty good at climbing. She's gonna chill. But yeah, no, she really whenever,
once you take her out, she's really good. All she wants to do is just kind of
hang out. Warm herself on you. But when you have her in the cage usually -
Whenever you first initially pick her up, unlike today, she's usually pretty bitey.
So we'll try to work that out of her, that's our goal.
Okay, well thanks for showing us her today.
Show how you can handle her and stuff so, once she gets bigger man, she's going to be an
armful. Literally. She'll probably need a bigger cage when she's full grown. Oh yeah, yeah, she'll most
definitely need a bigger cage. Okay. Well, we can put her back, leave her alone.
She's probably gonna get all mad now that she's in her cage.
They're territorial lizards.
She's gonna go hide.
Ohh, she's like "Oh don't touch me! Not in my cage!" She loves her cage too much.
