Hi
I wonder if your blue tongues lose their appetite with the moulting of their skin ?
Mine is active and he drinks but he don't want eating, even lives insects. The only thing i see it's he lost his skin...

Loss of appetite is very typical with males during this time of year. They got their minds on other things.

Yes, that is very normal. It is also very normal for them to not eat for a while after being moved to a new home ...in case your skink is new.

Hi Susann, indeed he's arrived since one month and he drinks, he's active, but he never accepted food.

Is he an adult?
What have you tried to feed him? And do you know what he was used to eating before you got him?
