Schneider skink stopped eating.

mutant Feb 29, 2004 06:48 AM

A few weeks ago my berber stopped eating what i was offering. She doesnt seem to be losing any weight (or not substantail amounts) but what can i do to trigger her back into eating? I've tried mince, crickets and locusts, of which she only ate a few crickets. She doesnt like snails so that wont help. Any advice, or is it just common for them to eat less over the winter months (im in england so ambient temps have dropped a fair bit)?

Schneider Skinks will eat less over the winter months, but it's best to keep offering the food. How big is your skink? And what temps are you keeping it at both in the day and at night?
