Screaming Baby Mini Dragon UPDATE! Red-eyed crocodile skink (Tribolonotus gracilis) #lizard

Did you know that besides geckos, Tribolonotus are said to be some of the only other lizards that possess vocal cords? They can voice their distress and advertise their presence by making sounds (barks, chirps, squeaks and growls). Every few months, I go through every crocodile skink terrarium, handle each skink to give them all a once over, and check for new eggs and neonates (babies). Here I am examining a young red-eyed crocodile skink (Tribolonotus gracilis), and as you can see and hear, they weren’t hesitant to voice their disapproval!

Her squeaks after you said what's up sounded like a response 😂 "you're holding me, that's what's up!" So adorable! ♥️

[Serket]

The early beginning sounds of what I sound like when I get woken up in the morning

[celtzen]

That is just too cute! They really are one of the coolest looking little critters

I love Red Eyed Crocodile Skink! They're so cute! The problem is I have a red eye, and it hurts. I don't know if it's a Red Eye Disease or just my allergies 😢 Anyways it's so cute🥰

[bohnoname]

Beautiful skink, like to have one...❤

[jtrkaw]

I’ve never heard of skink living in such a wet environment.

Omg, the squeaks! So absorbs!! Is it wrong I think the squeaks are cute? I mean they're probably annoyed that you're bugging them. But cute!

Sounds abit like a baby gator! Could you please do even a short on YouTube or a post on instagram about your vampire crab enclosures and care, I might get some depending on how you keep them

[guapagrande]

It was calling its mother and big brothers for help.

[geargeekpdx]

It looks like the little rubber animatronic velociraptor baby in Jurassic Park

[scifriskyxy]

You should handle them more so they get used to be handled

[MambosHerps]

[KatieDeGo]

Looks like Toothless from "How to Train your Dragon"! ❤

[toururururururu]

How come these cute sounds turn into hissing and gargling

[Scorpiogrrly]

I hatched a red eyed egg, it was so darling but it sadly didn’t thrive. I was so excited it made it through incubation & hatched. 🐣 but I’ll get one again, just have to get a well started one cause I’m afraid to repeat the same mistake.

[Nullified]

It sounds like Cookie (one of my 5 bjillion other geckos) THEREFORE:very very very cute🥰

[TacticalAmputee]

Yo bro, been trying to contact you through every way possible. I need help with my little dragon. I've been worried about him for weeks

[Gunkyballs]

How do you ensure they eat through all that vegetation ?
