So, not many people check the Other Lizard thread, because us people with other lizards are outcasts jk jk but anyways, I thought I'd show you all the new Fire skink I got a week or so ago...


I'm still not sure if he/she is sick,but I have learned he hates crickets and only will eat meal worms, but un powdered meal worms..and I don't know if that's going to end up being really bad in the long run.

Well here are the pics, and one video that's of him eating..He doesn't really come out during the day like he is supposed too, or I don't see him..so I have to un bury him to feed him.

Video:

I got him and he had a sort of scuff on the top of his head..

I'm really just hoping he's not sick, and just, kinda nice..but there are doubts..but my moms afraid of him cause he reminds her of a snake..

How would you know if something is pregnant? haha Does anyone know?!

He's adorable. Looks so fat and happy!

They're truly beautiful animals.

..I hope I can try my hand at raising one again some day. :/

Yeah, I'm truly sorry you had to go through that, but I've gone through it too, but you have to just tell yourself, things happen, and sometimes it's just too late to help. I remember when I was little about 12, I was so excited to get a rattie baby..they said he was just nice, and tired, and he was asleep on me, and I named him, and he died an hour later sleeping in my lap, I was so sad, but somehow I knew it was going to happen, but at least he died in warmth and silence instead of a noisy pet store.

I'm not going to give this guy a name for a few more weeks if he makes it that long, and if it turns out he's just somehow a nice skink, then I will be pleasantly surprised.
