So I already know the odds of survival for any plants nearby a blue tongue skink are pretty slim, but does anybody have any suggestions of plants that would be good to plant in northern’s enclosure? I plan on putting them in areas that they won’t easily be trampled, dug up, eaten, etc... any suggestions would be much appreciated!
