Day: a real gradient, 32–38°C warm against 24–27°C cool, so the animal chooses. Night: 24°C.

What your climate adds

This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.

คำถามที่พบบ่อย EN

Is it dangerous?

The bite is the serious one among skinks. Strong jaws and a defensive adult can leave a nasty wound.

What does it eat?

Leaves and vegetables only. It is a herbivore, which surprises almost everyone who asks.

How long does it live?

20 to 25 years or more, and they produce only one large baby at a time. That is why the price is high.

Can I keep two together?

Family groups exist in the wild, but introducing strangers goes badly. Do not mix animals casually.

Not stated: The size of the enclosurethis sheet describes the enclosure without a figure: « For a single specimen, an enclosure that's five feet high, three feet wide, and »

Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.

This sheet states 4 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: enclosure size audit, day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.

UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
