Hello everyone, I have a 5 year old Indo skink and while she had food stuck on her chin she went into her hide and the food fell off and she ate a fairly large piece of cypress mulch, will she be okay???

From what I've been told by my vet, some posts on here, and other places around the net, it could cause some impaction if it was large enough. It might pass normally though so I think I'd just keep an eye on her for now. I'd take your skink to her vet if she doesn't pass anything at her normal rate though.
