Vivs and breathing...

Postby miffikins » Fri Feb 22, 2008 3:51 pm

Hey guys! Just wondering if anyone can post some pics of your viv set-ups, or point me in the direction of some other threads with them?

At the mo Skinkfords viv has cork barks, which he has a burrow under, a few hides, fake plants and 2 flat rocks under his basking spot. Oh and water and veggie dishes....I want to add some more stuff to keep him entertained while I'm not there and need some inspiration!!

He's growing at a rate of knots! He must have grow 3" at least in length in the 6/7 weeks I've had him! He'll be full grown in no time :shock:
One thing that has worried me is that he seems to breathe quite heavily, it sounds a bit wheezy and he has been like this since I got him. His humidity was initially quite high but now is back down where it should be. Should I get him checked for a R.I, or is this loud breathing a skink thing??

Cheers

Kate :D
