A Few Interesting Animals From The Feb 5th 2011 Rocky Mountain Expo

There weren't many interesting animals at this expo besides the blue tongue skinks and the mourning geckos, but I thought these two species deserved a view. I'm not sure what they are, as I forgot to take note. They sure are cute though. In addition to these two, I saw a few species of Asian Rat Snakes, but by that time, I forgot I had a camera in my hand. I do believe one was a Bamboo Rat (Oreophis porphyraceus coxi)


First is a lizard. I think this is an armadillo lizard(?) of some sort.

This next guy was a sweetie. I don't remember what he was for the life of me. A gopher? That's not right.... I don't now. Lol

The first one is a red eyed crocodile skink. I'm not 100% sure on the snake but I think it's actually a type of kingsnake.
 
They wanted about $100 for him from what I recall. I think I could order one online for about $60 shipped. I'm glad my camera picked up how cute he was though.
 
I think the second is a Goini king.

Yup Robbie, I agree. I bought 2 of them a while back. Had some bad luck with them. Gorgeous little snakes though.

I saw an article on the red eyed skinks in a reptiles magazine I bought. Lol, they do look really really cool.
 
I wanted the Red-Eyed Croc Skinks! There were also Viper Geckos, Day Geckos and a bunch of other very interseting animals. I even saw a Bullsnake for adaption.
