Hello there! I would like to have a shameless plug for the facebook page for my pet Skink. Skinks are strange creatures that are like snakes but they have teensy leggies. Smaug isn't the best in terms of wildlife survival as he has no sharp teeth, no poison and his tail doesn't drop off. Combined with a general lack of speed or reflexes, he is my silly little 'idjit' (He ain't the smartest either)
My late mother got Smaug because he was on discount at the store because people were too scared to play with him. I think the pity mixed with the low maintenance lead to my mother choosing to get him. So, now he should be around 6-7 years old and he is still a happy little idjit.
My girlfriend has recently become the new administrator for the page because she is the one who catches more pics of the little guy. He is also more fond of her too so he is more willing to come out when she's there. Though I suspect it is because she brings him lots of snacks.
The Facebook page is Smaug the Magnificent: https://www.facebook.com/SmaugtheSkink/
