Im a new skink owner (3 weeks) I have a pair of BTS, both nearly 6 months, one is small and lean and one is much larger. The small one is Lulu and the larger is Phillip.
I keep a small bowl of lizard pellets in the enclosure, and generally have a combination that may include some fresh banana, blue berries, carrot, cos lettuce, peas and corn and every day or 2 Ill offer live crickets. Lulu dives on the crickets and will eat as many as I'll offer, but the last few days Phillip has no interest in them. I'm just looking for a little reassurance that their tastes and appetites can fluctuate and its perfectly healthy? I've watched Phillip hook into the pellets and fruit, so I know he's eating and pooping.
cheers in advance!
lost interest in crickets?
