I got to thinking about it, and I purchased this group of Frog-Eyed geckos from the same person as the Strophorus that was missexed and improperly ID'd.... So I thought it might be helpful to see if I can't get a little confirmation on what these Frog-eyes really are!

Tibetans (roborowski)?

?? No idea, other than it's a female.

Keyserlingii?

Sweet. Thanks guys. I'm new to the Frog-eyes as well, so I'm just trying to get my feet dirty without getting my face dirty, if you know what I mean :lol: .

The fourth was sold to me as an "undescribed" subspecies. I figured otherwise, and thought he looked close enough to what I was after to take the gamble.

The third one was not too easy for me to figure out... She was shedding in the pic - I'll get a new one of her posted soon. She just doesn't have nearly the orange of the male. Is this normal for female keyserlingii?

If she still looks dull it is most likely s.scincus as Johan said. My first guess probably was scincus scincus as it is more robust, but the fact it was shedding rerminded me alot of my keserlingii.
 
Great shots of the teratoscincus.
One and two are a pair of T. roborowski.
Third shot is a definite T. scincus scincus(female)
Fourth is a T. scincus keyserlingii

PS if that keyserlingii is a male I would love to purchase him!!

Scott,
There is a really nice T.s.key. male that has been in the kingsnake.com classifieds for sale for a while now. Check him out. I agree the first two a pair, the third is scincus scincus, you can tell by the dullness and blunt nose. The last is T.s.key. Good luck with these guys, very nice animals. I will try and post photos of my microlepis when I get time.

Oh, shoot, I was un-aware that you produced that male. Oh well, maybe Mark and you can work out a breeder loan? It will be very hard for him to find a lone female, better to send him to you for breeding purposes anyway in my opinion. See ya.

Mark,
Do you still have the male kesyerlingii that you posted on kingsnake a couple of days ago??

Scott

Yep - I still have him. No female for him, so let me know if you're interested. I need to clear out a few geckos before we move...
