Food question
Posted: Wed Apr 29, 2020 6:43 am
Hello everyone!
A tiny little question about feeding. The last few months, my skink refuse to eat his dubia roaches. However, he eats zophobas/canned food/eggs/vegetables/etc. I asked the breeder, and he said don't feed him for a while. Like as the forum guide - if the skink is picky, he isn't hungry. But it doesn't help - the lizard still refused to eat the roaches, even after two weeks without food (I tryed to give him roaches every 3 days).
Maybe some of you now if there is a way "to learn" the skink for eating roaches? Because in the past he was eating them well.... Or better to try different kinds of roaches? I don't want to feed him with crickets, because I don't have a different room to keep them, and their calls annoying me.
The skink is 11 month old, if it matter for something.
