Mulberry leaves, apples, kiwi, melons, berries, kale, spinach, and bananas are all favorites for the Solomon Island Skink.
- A large terrarium, tall with plenty of room for branches for them to climb on is the most desirable setup.
- Solomon Island Skinks allow gentle handling and become more tame over time.
- While most skinks are hyperactive, these animals are as slow as a sloth and you do not need to worry about them running away when trying to handle them.
- Solomon Island Skinks may take water from a dish, but will more likely lick drops off of leaves and terrarium glass.
