Can anybody give me an idea of what is around my BTS's mouth? It's only on one side and I have had her for 5 days.

do you feed him some sort of mushy food like dog food or cat food? if you do then its possibly some leftovers that dried up just stuck to your skink

Looks like wet cat/dog food.

Ya, I'd say dried food. Get a warm, damp cloth, and wipe it.

This might sound funny to some but I always give Tattoo a paper towel under his dish at feeding time. He likes to wipe his mouth on it when he's done eating. I think this makes it easier for him to get his mouth clean.

If Blue doesnt wipe his mouth every where,he spends 10 minutes licking his lips
