BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Boris is so picky with his food, so i took your advice guys to just blend everything ( greens, veggies, fruits, meat, etc ) but i also know that he needs solid food for his gums, etc..
How can i do this without him picking his food?
Will giving insects considered a good exercise for his jaw and gums?

I havent tried snails but he didnt touch his meal worms.
thanks a bunch guys

Try superworms, they wiggle a lot!

Well atleast now he is getting the taste of those foods he wouldn't eat before so in time you could try chopped and see if he takes that too.

Also, what time are you feeding him? I like to feed in the late afternoon, so they have had plenty of time to get their body temp up, as well as build up some hunger.

In the wild, diurnal reptiles will come out in the early AM to bask, then hunt, then sleep during the hottest part of the day, and then hunt again, before retiring for the night.

thanks guys

are you blending everything or just chopping it? Try chopping it all together so it' mixed but still solid.
