The Togo Fire Skink is a magnificent lizard to add to your reptile menagerie. The Togo Fire Skink is an interesting and attractive lizard that is relatively easy to keep.
Fire skinks are omnivores.
In the wild their diet consists primarily of insects and some fruits. Fresh fruits can also be offered, but should not make up a large part of the diet. Like most skinks, the Fire Skink has a tubular shaped body and has smooth scales that lie flat against the body, making them appear somewhat shiny. The back of the Togo Fire Skink is a dark gold to tan color with small reddish black markings spattered unevenly across the back between the head and the base of the tail. The sides are dark red with large black markings, breaking up the red.
