Anyone here an expert?
Weve had a wildcaught male greatplains skink for over a year now.My son has tamed him down enough to take mealies from his hand.
We use a uvb tube and a heat bulb too.My question is he has been eating only mealies and crickets up to now.Today I put a mulberry on his rock and he promptly ate it...I was under the impression he was a meat only eater..
What else should we be feeding it?

I have a bluetongue(eats greens fruit ect) but that isnt the same as the little pink tongue skinks so assumed it ate insects only.
