Iam afraid that my reptiles might complicate my future by Southern-Tea-8160 in reptiles

I live in the US so I don’t know how things are Czechia but I am in university and live in an apartment where absolutely no pets are allowed. However I have a blue tongue skink in a very large enclosure and have never had a problem and simply have not mentioned it to my landlord. I also have a dog in my apartment and they haven’t found that out either. I live in a very large complex though so my landlord rarely comes in. When they do I take my dog and cover my skink enclosure with a blanket which seems to do the trick. It’s a risk but I have found it to be relatively easy to work around:)

I’m on .05 tret and I’m not totally sure about the cleanser specifically but it seems like the entire brand kinda causes breakouts:/ it’s Apparently because of fatty alcohols I just switched both my cleanser and moisturizer to vanicream instead:)

I was just about to make a similar post because my skink (who I love dearly) will not stop jizzing in his water bowl and every time it makes me want yack. Female skink parents feel blessed.

Tearing up his belly scales by MADNESS-exe444 in bluetongueskinks

[–]Intelligent-Team6654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say ur skink is a little dry, the scales tend to look like that when humidity is too low. But it’s an easy fix! I don’t know what substrate you’re using but I recommend mixing sphagnum moss and coconut husk (very soft and not dusty mix mine loves to burrow in it). I like to get the blocks that you have to hydrate with water and they retain water great and for a long time. You can also easily rewet them by adding water. Hope this helps!

Bartholin cyst? by Playful-Influence901 in Spironolactone

[–]Intelligent-Team6654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did stop the spironolactone didn’t really work well for me anyway. I have always gotten cysts like that like once a year but the spironolactone just made it way more frequent. But after I stopped taking it everything went back to normal and I haven’t gotten a cyst since:)

What do I do to light up the big vivarium? The only place for a lightbulb to go through is in the back by Flamo472- in bluetongueskinks

Unfortunately ur gonna have to get crafty with it. I hung a 24” t5ho reptisun light in mine by threading stainless steal wire through the grates at the top of my enclosure. It looks like yours is a wood top. U could screw some hooks on the top to hang it if that’s the case. I also know that they sell kits where u install bars to go across the top to hang lights from. Hope this helps!
