Skeith

The Skeith is a dragon-like Neopet, and one of the original 14 when Neopets began on November 15, 1999. As one of the largest Neopets of Neopia, they are quite strong but also lazy, preferring to get smaller creatures to do things for them. Skeiths are capable of eating anything, including Battledome Equipment, furniture, Petpets, Petpetpets, codestones, dubloons and Paint Brushes. This makes it very easy to keep your Skeith well fed, as users can simple feed their Skeith items they wish to get rid of. In fact, when a Skeith is hungry and its owner visits the Quick Ref page, it may snatch and consume an item from the user's inventory. When it does this, it becomes bloated. While they can eat anything, Skeiths come down with Neezles when fed anything with the word cheese.

Resembling a type of dragon, the Skeith is adorned with spikes and wings, and while these wings can support a Skeith's weight, it is likely some Skeiths have difficulty flying due to their large bulk and the small size of the wings themselves. Skeiths also do not appear particularly aerodynamic.
