it varies from state to state. For instance in my state all you have to have is a valid hunting license to keep native species, both venomous and non. But to keep exotics reptiles of any kind you do not need anything here in my state, MS.

What is the small instestine lined with?
The small intestine is lined with a mucosal layer that features numerous finger-like projections called villi, which increase its surface area for nutrient absorption. The epithelial cells on these villi contain microvilli, further enhancing absorption. This lining also includes specialized cells that produce digestive enzymes and absorb nutrients, as well as goblet cells that secrete mucus to protect the intestinal wall. Overall, the lining of the small intestine plays a crucial role in digestion and nutrient absorption.

Skink with yellow stripes what type is it?
a skink with yellow strips is a yellow striped skink how could it be any other type?
I don't think so, but it might depend on the species. I have a five-striped skink and it has bitten me, but its teeth are too small for it to hurt. It just feels like a little pinch but doesn't hurt. Anoles, on the other hand, can have painful bites, but it depends on size with them.

What do blue tailed skinks eat?
Skinks in the wild eat anything that walks or flies by as long as they can fit it into their mouths. Avoid caterpillars, spiders, wasps and bees. Somehow in the wild they avoid the poisonous ones, captive ones might eat them and get sick . I raised them on meal worms and crickets dusted with "Herptivite brand Multivitamins and Calcium" I'm sure others would work just as well, also would give them canned Monitor/ Tegu food as a treat, they'd really enjoy it. Feed them until they are full every 2 days or so. You will be able to see them looking around for more if they are getting really hungry.
