Potty Training

[Hillsberry]

Hey guys. I was wondering if there is anyway I might be able to potty train my Blue Tongue Skink. I would enjoy handling him so much more if he didn't go to the bathroom on me anymore. If anyone has any idea on how I could potty train him that would be great. Thanks!

Not sure if its possible, some herps like going bio in substrate some don't.
However there are ways of getting your reptiles to go to the washroom, snakes for instance almost always go when they soak in a bath. I'm not sure what triggers skinks though.

From what I've seen, the only herps capable of understanding/learning and being "trainable" are monitors and tegus. My savannah is potty trained.
