Just a thought, But wouldnt it be possible to keep a colony of blind snakes, and use them (live) to scent skinks. As skinks would be more alike a diet of Blind snakes than rats tails etc. Rat tails would be of low nutritional value at least. I know this would be alot of trouble, but it would work as far as I could see... or force feeding skinks is pretty easy anyway....
Does anyone know if any species of Blind snake is on the list of kept species in any state?
