• In case most of you have not noticed, I made changes to the donation amounts as well as the durations for all of the paid membership levels. Things are winding down here, and this seems to be the most prudent way to deal with the "end of life" period of this site.

    Contributor level members - $10 per 30 days
    Sponsors - Eliminated
    Benefactor level members - $25 per 30 days
    Endowment level members - $50 per 30 days

    On July 1, 2027, all paid memberships will be closed.

    On August 1, 2027, FaunaClassifieds will be terminated.

    Only change I expect that might take place is when I can get around to figuring out when the amount of money I would have to refund for the yearly paid memberships becomes less than the monthly expense of leasing my server, THAT date might be the termination date for the site.

I bought a Schneider skink a couple days ago and he refuses to eat. What should I do?
 
This type of skink requires a basking spot of 104-130.
I would ditch the aspen and use sand only.
Try crickets

If a lizard isn't warm enough, it will not eat. Adjust the temps and it should start eating.
 
Hi there....if you Google it,several different forums and care sheets mention a temp. gradient of 80 -100, and also mention several inches of playsand to dig in. Several owners also mention that it is not unusual for them to have erratic eating patterns.....eating a few days, then not eating for a few days or a week, especially during times of stress such as when they are newly acquired. So that seems to be the norm, and you don't need to worry too much if the skink doesn't eat for a few days or so.
