I know skinks are breeding now but around when are they born? I have recently plunged into the BTS community( about half a yearnow) and I am looking forward to owning my own skink but I would like to get mine as a baby. Also how old are they beforethey can be brought home after being born?

Takes 90-120 days after mating for babies usually. And they should be a couple weeks to a month old before going home.

It is so great that you are waiting for a baby, rather than just buying the first one you see in a pet shop. :D It will be worth it!
