BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Hi everyone! While I do have plenty reptile-specific food (can-o-crickets and the like), as well as green beans, carrots, some ground up egg shells and such ready, I wanted to ask the community what brands of dog food you normally use for your BTS.

I know a lot of dog foods contain corn and grain, and I wasn't sure if this could be harmful to a skink or not, and if I would need to only purchase otherwise "raw" brands that contain no by-products and no corn/grain.

Brand of dog food is more a matter of personal preference then anything really. The higher end grain free kinds are healthier but regular brands like Pedigree are completely fine to use too. I acutally use pedigree ground puppy wet dog food mostly as the staple in my bts chow.

I have also use pedigree it's cheap and they like it.

I have tried a few different kinds, and all of mine never refused Pedigree. So, I use Pedigree, as far as dog food goes.

According to some more experienced breeders, the cheaper, full-of-byproducts-and-other-crap dogfoods produce healthier skinks who produce bigger healthier litters.

I mostly use Pedigree beef/chicken, but I'll mix it up with whatever is cheap and on sale.

Awesome, thanks everyone! Looks like Pedigree is the way to go, so I'll definitely grab some tonight.

I have put together a mixture of fruits, veggies, crushed egg shells and lean ground beef, and I'll probably feed that once or twice a week, while using Pedigree as the normal staple. <3

I use blue buffalo chicken flavor

I personally have been using the Newman's Own Organic chicken as the staple, mixed with collard greens and squash. My BTS loves it.
