Well Blue berry is about to shed. So I thought this would teach other when their skink is about to shed.
Usually the back scales become much duller/grayer than usual:
The underside is is a white/light gray and very shiny:
(awkward holding, because I have the camera in one hand and the skink in the other)

It is really one of the great dichotomies of life: the more you yearn something the further it is from reach.
