Well, I have a baby 5 lined skink that I got at a local petstore; he's already eaten some pinhead crickets, and I have for bedding a coconut fiber/dirt mixture, some fake vegetation to hide under, etc . . . I have an extra uvb 10, should I use that or is the UVB output too high? Would a 5 be more appropriate? I've never owned a skink before, and I've been googling like crazy, but there just isn't a lot out there like I'm used to with beardies and leos and such . . . anywho, hope the picture posts, and ANY tips would be wonderful! Thanks!
