Bitten by the bluey bug

Blue tongue skinks are definitely addictive :lol:

My new Northern is out of quarantine and I'd like to introduce Idunn the ever young :)

He/she is a year old and had a bit of a rough start :(
- a couple layers of stuck shed
- belly scales like sand paper
- 21 inches but only 393 grams
- has a slight shake and sometimes creaks like an old man

On the bright side he's got an amazing temperament and a great appetite, all of his toes and no kinks but his ribs look a bit "off" to me :noknow: I just hope there is no permenant damage from a diet of bearded dragon pellets :(

It's cool to see he has a good home now. No matter the animal, I always love to see a good rescue. Congratulations on the new Bluey! He is beautiful. :D

I've seen skinks that look like zig zags straighten out after enough time and care. He looks thin but some dog food can chub them up quick. I don't see any signs of MBD though.
