So I built my viv, and now I have him/her! :D

[MrBThastMe]

I made another thread asking for advice on my viv design, well I've finished it now and I'm quite happy with the end result. Here it is (colours are a bit off - my walls are actually white):



I still have a few modifications to do as well as making the inside way more interesting (holes have now been cut for wires and circular vent fittings, night bulb and there's already a UVB fitting with a reptiglow tube, it just didn't help with picture taking so I turned it off ). Got a few other things that I'm going to add too.
And meet Peter Nincompoop:



I'd like to ask a couple of questions here, too.

Firstly, how MUCH food should I be feeding him? I've found plenty of info of what, and when but nothing on actual portion sizes. He's around 4 months old.

Secondly, could anyone tell me what type of BTS he is? Amazingly, I forgot to ask this, both times that I was in the local store. I guess I was so excited to finally be getting a BTS :p

I'm a bit rushed, but I just wanted to say one thing or I'll worry about it- I'd lose the twine/string net thing. It looks great and is a lovely idea for interest, but blueys love to climb and he may get tangled in it, or climb all the way up and fall off. Otherwise, it looks good.

Can we see more pictures of Mr Nincompoop soon? He looks a good size, how old is he?

The feeding chart has portions, for him id say a tablespoons worth everyday. As for the species, based on this pic id say ij

Generally, mine will eat a meal about the size of their head. I try to offer a meal 2x that, so if they're extra hungry they can eat more.

I will agree that it looks to be an IJ. Very cute little skink

I feed mine a table spoon each (some will eat less) except my merauke, and she eats about 2 times as much as the others!

He's tiny and growing - I'd offer a couple TBSP every 2-3 days and let him have what he will eat in one sitting. Be sure to add some calcium. If you offer lots but less frequently they seem to stay a good weight - I offer my adults whatever they will eat weekly and they don't seem to get too fat, so that seems to be a good method. Lots of food but less frequently. Good luck, lovely enclosure!!

Also, I like your Viv style, nice job ;D
