Yup! You saw right. The picky little butthead dove in and chowed on a PBJ.
I can't get him to eat ANYTHING else! But quite possibly, THE WORST food on the planet, he loves.
I just can't stand it!
So heres what happened:
I got home from a call, fixed a PBJ and picked up the blue tongue skink. (With this many animals, someone is always being held)
So I'm sitting on the couch, holding this feral little beastie that huffing and puffing, but has stopped trying to drill holes in me with those crazy little needle toes, when out of the blue, he darts forward, grabs a hold of the sandwich and starts tearing into it like carrion on road kill.
He's insane!
I took the sandwich away, of course, but he charged after it and grabbed one more big mouthful for good measure.
The next 45 minutes was spent trying to bathe a very sticky, EXTREMELY agitated BTS. Let me tell ya, it ain't easy trying to clean grape jelly off a face thats trying to eat you every chance it gets!
So what on earth is up with my lizards?? Dharma snagged Oreos and birthday cake whenever no one was looking, Rock revels in bagels & cream cheese and now the skink will only eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
And for the record: Yes, skinks and dogs do the same darn thing with peanut butter.
The sandwich snagging culprit:
