Maaari bang kumain ng mansanas ang mga asul na balat ng dila?

Sa maikling salita: oo, blue tongue skinks can eat apples and it is perfectly acceptable to feed them these fruits as part of a balanced diet.

Ang sabi, there are a few health considerations to keep in mind when feeding apples to your pet skink:

Ang mga mansanas ay mataas sa fructose at ang kanilang pagkonsumo ay dapat na limitado, dahil sa kanilang mataas na nilalaman ng asukal na maaaring humantong sa labis na katabaan.

At saka, kailangan mong siguraduhing tanggalin ang anumang buto ng mansanas bago ihain dahil mahirap matunaw ang mga ito at maaaring humantong sa impaction.

Maliban doon, apple is a healthy fruit choice and you can feed it to your blue tongued skink in moderation without any major concerns.
