Found this little guy clinging onto life at work, it didnt even try to run when I went upto him he was really ou of energy. When I got home I put him in a box and put a downlight on him as its cold here now and alos chucked in a grape and some water in a old jar lid. After about 30 mins or so he got stuck into the grape and water ( it can get enough of grapes) So he is doing really well now but I wat to know is how can I care for it abit more and what does it eat??
how big? well depends if ur willing to keep long time if not i would put him in sunlight or buy him a light with uv but more importantly i say he needs heat. Pet shops sell loads of heating systems heat rocks, matts, lights etc pet shops crickets which you will need he can't live on grapes alone
Where in australia are you i am only familular with western australian. it looks like some i know but i am not certant make sure you tell me if you intend to keep him so i can give you better intrustructions
if you in northern nsw or northrn qld i can take him for you and get him better then release him again
RE: Cool He looks like a fire skink. The picture is a little blurry. I used to own two fire skinks when I was younger. They like to hide and burry themselves under the sand or mulch. Do you have any better pictures? I used to feed Kingworms, crickets and pinkie mice. They need UVA/UVB and some heat. But before I go into details it would be good to make sure it is a Fire Skink.
RE: Cool No need to dig old posts up like this. It's from april last year, and the member hasn't even signed in again since then.
