Sperm plug or urate? - with picture

Postby tcopitho » Sat Jan 31, 2015 6:43 pm

Just discovered what may or may not be a sperm plug in my skink's poop while she was taking a bath. There was a pretty large urate as well, this sort of came out separately in a little clump. I thought it was a sperm plug, but it doesn't really have that translucency that most of the images I have looked up seem to have. I was hoping to get some opinions.

Thanks!

I'm not an expert by any means but I don't think thats a sperm plug. From the ones I've seen they're more translucent and less white.

Thanks for your input, I think you are right. She remains a lady skink for now. :thumbs:
