@ericbelliard Banana is harmful to most things as it contains very high levels of pottasium

My skink Adalon only had scrambled eggs once and while she loved them, I had to leave the windows open for several hours to get the smell she left the next day out :<
Too much banana gives them diarrhea and causes bowel problems I think, I only give mine a little slice every once in a while

What a big beautiful Northern!! A skink with a full belly is a happy skink for sure. :)
Well Blue Tongues in general are usually pretty tame. I usually recommend it to beginners as a first pet moreso than the bearded dragon b/c they are much easier to care for and feed. Good luck with your blue tongue!

Well it is good to feed them a variety of foods. Some blue tongues will readily eat insects, however mine refuses to really eat them. You can feed pinky-hopper size mice, scrambled egg, high quality dog food, turkey meat, green beans, carrots, fruits (like melon, strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, apple, banana...though not too much banana)...Some even really love the can'o snails made by zoo med. Variety is the key!
