The nutrition of a skink is primarily determined by what is available.
Skinks are lizards from the Scincidae family, which is part of the Scincomorpha infraorder. A skink's food in the warm months consists primarily of grasshoppers, beetles, bees, crickets, and beetle larvae while the reptile would also forage for fruit, birdseed, nuts, and pet food throughout the warm weather and the wintertime when food is limited.
The Scincidae family is one of the most varied lizard families, with over 1,500 known species spread over one hundred taxonomic groups. Garden skinks are the world's second-biggest species of lizard, behind geckos, although their environments vary greatly. A considerable level of variety in nutrition happens as a result of such environmental fluctuation. A captive skink has an average lifespan of somewhere between 15 and 20 years, however, some have been known to live for more than 32 years.
