My best friend currently has two, one of them being a rescue, and they're SO SWEET and personable. I would totally recommend one.

Re: would like opinions...plz
Does anyone have any pics of theirs? Also, the store sells them (northerns) for 150.00 but the one I want is missing his front leg due to a bite from a leggless lizard (go figure, must have been jealous)...anyway, it has healed and is otherwise fine, the guy said he'd give him to me for $75...my husband says i can get him if i can talk him down to 50...
??

Re: would like opinions...plz
I wouldn't settle for a rescue when buying... if it is a rescue it should be free. 
I have two Northerns and one Irian Jaya. Both are good choices.
Here is an older picture of Puff.... He is chewing on my dogs' nylabone.

Puff (right).... Blueberry (left)

This makes me sad.... I need to update my pictures of my BTS.
Oh and check out the site in my sig... Blue Tongue Skinks - Welcome to BlueTongueSkinks.NET ! if you haven't already. They have the best caresheets and AWESOME BREEDERS!!!

Re: would like opinions...plz
It wouldn't really be a rescue...the guy who has it knows what he is doing...he says he doesn't want to sell it to just anyone (he could just be buttering me up)...his wife wants to keep it...he said he knows my hub and I know what we are doing etc...
should I ask for less or just leave it alone...we go there usually once a week or so...he knows i am a sucka for any reptile lol...

Re: would like opinions...plz
This is just the way that I feel... but when I spend $$ I want it to be on something that doesn't have any defects...
If it is only a missing leg and other wise healthy... I wouldn't spend more than $40. It would be considered a B or C grade animal.
I'm sure he would be a happy lizard non the less. And he will have the same awesome personality as most Northerns do.

If the guy knew what he was doing the lizard would not be missing a leg.
