T.rugosa asper is one of my favorite. It is because i don't have the room and the money to keep them at the moment but some day  I've read that only have one partner in life ? What are your experiences with them and do you have picture's of their vivariums ?
Ehm the other one's I say : T. r. palarra.
What is the price of a shingleback at the moment ? especially aspers ?

T rugosa palarra and T rugosa aspera they look very nice Sean. As I told you on the phone I saw one near Longreach. I think it was a aspera I had my camera with me but I didnt got a pic of it because a car drow by and it runned away...
Similar thing happend in Noosa Np I saw a big Land mullet (Egernia major) but some tourist thought it was a snake and screamed so it runned away aswell, just my luck

Very easy to keep and very calm too.
Diet mainly vegetation and a little protien.
They eat certain veg, mellon, grapes, bannana, snails will take mice and cat food. |
