I'm thinking I'll just say he's a year and make it his birthday ^_^




I celebrate "gotcha" days around here when I don't know my animal's real birthday. Did the breeder give you an age on it?

heehee
I tried picking him up to say hi...he tried to take a nip at me ^_^
He isn't too bad with me petting him though.
Hopefully, he'll calm down some more within a few more days ;D

aw well~ I'll try feeding him tomorrow~~ ^_^
I haven't gone shopping for his greens yet so a little fruit won't be too bad ^_^

I would feed it to use up the cans, but I wouldnt go out and buy it to feed a skink. I just dont think it is very good in quality. Heck, I dont even feed my cat that stuff!

meep...

I've got quite a few cans left...I guess I'll use about 2 to feed it until this weekend when I go out to shop properly...give the rest to some crazy cat lady or something XD

I'm not quite sure how to make up it's meat portion if he doesn't like butter worms though...I'm gonna try feeding him some this weekend ^_^

I'm not a waxworm or superworm fan...hopefully I won't have to feed him those ;D

My Indonesian scared me by hissing the first time I tried to pick it up in the pet store. The more I handle him, the less he hisses at me. They just have to be socialized to humans. ::

Get yourself some snails, they're the best all round food for your bluey(pesticide free of course) or offer cooked chicken or beef

Hey there,

Just from my experience with my bluey, I didn't really pick her up as much as I tried to give her a chance to walk onto my hand instead. She was a baby then and I tried each day to coax her out until the curiousity got the best of her and she walked half way onto my hand and I scooped up her back with the other hand.

Like others have said, once they're out, they are not so huffy. Lots of attention and frequent handling has made my Sammy a little sweetheart! :wink:
