Just wondering what others do when they go on vacation. Have had my prehensile-tailed skink for 6 years - for longer vacations we bring him to a "reptile lady". But next week we will be gone for 4 nights - do you think he can stay alone that long? Lights are on timer, and I will leave food and water. What foods would be best (longest-lasting)?

We've all had to leave our animals for short periods. I usually have the neighbor kid check food/water/lights etc while gone.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, I don't have a suitable neighbor, to come in and check up on things.
I think I will buy a pothos plant tomorrow; that's something he can munch on and it won't spoil. And I'll leave an extra water dish. And keep my fingers crossed. I think he should be okay.
