Re: Skink diherea
hello.

egg, banana, beans mean they will have runny and stinky poop. some other things too. just like it would give you the same reaction if you ate a lot of it

Have you done a fecal test to rule out parasites? Skinks can have diarrhea for a variety of reasons, but it is always a good idea to rule out parasites.
