The Funny Thing about Skin + Skinks?

Postby LarissaLurid » Thu Mar 29, 2012 2:52 pm

Has anyone else here experienced what I'm talking about with how Skinks seem to stick to our skin? It's funny when my 4 month Merauke, Caipora, tries to climb over my leg or something and with how small their legs are and how their bodies are always touching the ground, no matter how hard mine tries it's almost like his/her belly is glued to skin lol. :hehe:

"Put some cloths on" :rofl:

My skink used to stick to my leg also when she was smaller. Recently though I put her on the rounded arm of a suede couch and Scooter could not move. lol. Moved her to the coushin - still stuck.

Lol yea, mine sticks to my palm as well. I always have to help him/her move over stuff since s/he's still small.

That's hilarious about the suede couch. X]
