blue tail lizard.

Question
1st question....can i keep a lepord gecko in a tank with a blue tailed shink....    2nd...   how many crickets should i feed my shink a day?

Answer
Hi Rick,
Its not a good idea to house them together as there are diseases that reptiles carry that aren't a problem to their own species but can be deadly to other species.  Also, the care of the skink and the leo are different.  Leos are nocturnal...meaning active at night.  Skinks are active during the day and require a good source of uvb to survive.
Both the leo and the skink should be allowed to eat as many crickets as they want in a 10-15 minute time frame.  Most skinks  generally do not eat every day...every other day is recommended, especially for adults.  Babies and juvys can be offered food daily.
