The general reptilian-loving reminded me of Julius (he of the door-opening fame).

Bless this deeply devoted skink man and all his talk of becoming a witch and turning his skink into his familiar. I am super confused about half of what was said, but the part about him wanting his skink to be his familiar for through okay.

I can't stop watching the rhino iguana eating kix, it's like a mini Falkor the luck dragon as a wise lizard

I was linked this video a few days ago. It is beautiful to see such enthusiasm over anything.

I liked the part where the blue-tongued skink licked his lips. With his blue tongue.

Another mesmerizing work of art from Crispin Glover.

Reptile love! This guy looooves his skink, which is understandable as he is a beautiful skink, clearly happy, with a great appetite, lovely skin and a spectacular azure tongue. Now I have to go give my parrot, who has her reptilian moments, a big kiss on the beak.

Misread as "blue-tongued skunk." Was surprised.

I lost it at the point where he's amazed at the skink's love of yams...
"(Baby talk) (baby talk) I love my skiiiinnnk were gonna be together forever blahblah"
"You really like those yams, shit"
....
"Yay Lil birthday skinky! You're the best big friend ever you love your meal" etcetc

He keeps saying "dog" and "puppy" and it makes me think of some twisted Christmas:
Mom: Now Johnny, you know how you always wanted a puppy...posted by Ogre Lawless at 1:31 PM on July 7, 2014 [1 favorite]
Son: (excitedly) Yes! Is that's what's in the box?!?
Mom: and how Dad was allergic and thought them to be filthy beasts...
Son: Yes! Can I open the box now?
Mom: Well, I asked at the pet store and they said you could walk and pet and sing to your new friend...
Son: (tears open wrapping, comes face to face with iguana, blank expression)
Mom: Its an skink dear, like a snake but much cooler. Its toungue is blue...
Son: (tears forming at corners of his eye, brings out skink, hugs him close) Thanks, Mom, he's the best puppy ever.
Skink: (poops, moves on)
I hope this guy's veterinary insurance covers the inevitable psychotherapy Peperonie is going to require due to having a smothering parent.

That skink has the cutest little legs! I am glad he has a friend who loves him enough to make him a birthday celebration complete with song.
I wondered how baby skinks arrive in the world and looked it up - it turns out that blue-tongue skinks are viviparous, so the mother skinks give live birth.
