BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

The vast majority of food/diets I have seen for bts, consists of shredded/small cut items/mush type diets. Which has made me wonder about a couple of things. BTS skinks are known for having a powerful bite and occasionally suffer from mouthrot. Is there some type of food (other than snails, not avail locally and don't trust myself to self collect/cleanse them) that can be offered that would exercise their jaws/cleanse out food particles inside their mouths to reduce bacteria? I was thinking dog kibble, however what I have read always recommends to soak it.

Just curious as I haven't seen this addressed anywhere so far.

Mine have dry food available in their cages at all times. Some of them really like it. No need to soak it.

Thanks Splashy, great infot to know!
