Egg Head

Postby Lizardqueen&Chuckie » Tue Mar 11, 2008 3:57 am

Chuckie had his first (since ive had him) raw egg today & he went crazy for it. ate, or drank, the entire lot and looked at me as if to ask for more... then went onto the boring salad....

he also had some roaches today, which went down fast :D
but i was wondering, how often can they have egg? i dont want to make him sick with it.

Keep an eye on chuckies poo, see if he gets the runs. Eggs have been known to cause that. XP I'm not sure exactly how much, but I'd say once a week at most. Personally my skinks have only had egg 2 times since I got them in Sept, so I don't know too much about how it would affect them.

No pictures? :(

I think raw gives them really smelly poo. Chuffie hasn't been too bad in the past when he's had hardboiled or scrambled, which he loooooooves!

Nope sorry.. :( didn't catch any pics. He's still a little bit iffy if i come close to him about what im goign to do. I would have, but he kept his eye on me, so i didnt wnat to disturb him.

I did actually notice his poo a bit runny when i got home today... :| It wasnt runny, but it was softer.
i dont think ill give it to him too often... lol :)

thanks for the help!
