0.0.1, what does it mean?
What does 0.0.1, 0.1.0 and 1.0.0 etc. mean? Or 0.0.2?

It is a way of showing the quantities and sex of your animals. The first entry is number of males, the second is number of females, and the third is number of unknown sex. I have 0.0.1 Northerns so I have one skink only and I'm not sure what sex it is. As hard as it is to sex blue tongues I would think a lot of our skinks would fall in that last position. Hope that makes sense.

It never hurts to ask. The only reason I know is because I wondered into the herp newsgroup (rec.pets.herp) 10 years ago and I had no idea what any of that meant so I had to ask back then.
No, it's a SKINK not a SKUNK. Er, no, it's not a Blue Tongued Skank---although I do think I dated one of those at some point.

I have been wondering for at least 6 months. I had always assumed that It was just a weird way of separating the ones and tens and hundreds places, but that would mean that many of the people on this forum owned hundreds of animals so I don't know what I was thinking.
