Dunno if anyone can help me out but here it goes.There had been these Berber skinks in a pet shop i had seen and everytime i went there they were sicker and sicker. Yesterday, i came in there and they were half dead. One of em is in extremely bad shape and hardly moves. I know about they usual care but i need help and advice on what i should do for them now.i know one isnt eating.Ive gotten an overhead heatlight with a red bulb. I have a water dish with some Similac in it to try to get them to drink.There on papertowel as well with temp on the basking spot of 99.4 F) and i had to force feed around 0.8 cc's similac to the female with a seringe. She just let me open her mouth like nothing, shes very weak. The male looks fine now eccept for one thing. His breathing. Yesterday it seemed like he had hiccups of something and i saw him do something kinda like sighing today. His breathing seems like large breaths. I also gave them some fancyfeast cat food and ground some collard greens,grapes and mango together and mixed it with the cat food. but i dont think theill eat it just yet. There in my closet nice and quiet and dark.

Forgot to mention the petshop surrendered them to me i didnt pay for em.

Just thought id let you know that the female died last night. Im kinda relieved, because she was in such a sad shape she had to be suffering.
