he's a big boy. Do you think he's overweight. I just bought smaller food bowels thought about cutting him down a lil but I thought I'd ask professionals. I feed him every other day. I think I was lucky with him because I got him from a pet store and other than shedding problems at first the vet said he was fine. I have to take him for another check up soon. Well anyway let me know if you think I should use the smaller bowls I don't want him to get fat and lazy
Thanks

Maybe a little, but I'm not an expert.

What a monster! He is absolutely beautiful. As for being over weight, Im not sure. I would say maybe a little, but it looks like he is big framed to begin with.

wow! he is HUGE!

very awesome.

i think this pic looks like a moray eel (ignore the feet of course)

Wow.

I'd say the guy is a tad overweight as opposed to "obese." I think a good diet, skipping every other day (or feeding every two days if you're already every other day) should help out...

He's absolutely beautiful, and looks like a blast to hang out with... Do people pretty much freak out when they see him?

when I take him for walks outside in his box he pokes his head out to see outside and people think he's a snake. Generally people don't really come near him if they don't know him but my friends love him

he looks like a gentle giant. whats his personality like?

JuggaMidget · Postby **JuggaMidget** » Sun Apr 29, 2007 6:27 pm

I don't know what species he is he may be merauke he likes to climb on people, he's nosy he likes to know whats going on, he loves to run around, he likes to listen to nature sounds on my ipod he lays next to the speakers and falls asleep.

What a WHHOOPPEERR!!!!!!, You could use him as a draft excluder :lol:

You mentioned about using the smaller bowl, were you using a washing up bowl before, only joking, is he into SUMO

nice mix of colours, and we all love photos!!

mg: He's a MONSTER! I'm not sure I'd call him completely overweight. 25" is gigantic for a skink, so he obviously has a big build. What do you feed him?

JuggaMidget · Postby **JuggaMidget** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 3:11 pm

he eats a lil of everything he has a varied diet. cat food, superworms, snails, fruits his fave being blueberries. veggies canned and fresh. he eats waxworms on occasion not alot though. I'm getting into silkworms and live snails now so thats new to him. hes had one hard boiled egg. when I first got him he didn't really eat the veggies I gave to him but now he eats at least three different things everytime I feed him.

JuggaMidget · Postby **JuggaMidget** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 3:12 pm

the funny thing is at the pet store I got him from they had two there I picked him because he was the smallest of the two I wonder how big the other one got

Justin · Postby **Justin** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 5:29 pm
