Some early ones when i just got her:
(also that fish tank has been torn down since this picture, pardon the giant algae boom)

and now a couple months later:

I'm just calling her a "her" because it's what I wanted, I know it's hard to sex skinks and I saw some advice to just pick a gender unless you wanted to breed them. I might ask for advice sexing when she's got a bit bigger though.

Her name is "gecko" and the warm side of her enclosure is tile on paper towel. What isn't pictured is the other half, which is comprised of a giant box filled with Care fresh bedding for burrowing. (I saw another member do something similar and thought I'd try it out.

She has a 60w Heat bulb, and a UVB light, as well as getting Repti cal in her diet. She did end up slowing down for the winter (I was afraid she would, being my first skink) so I was wondering if she looks too skinny? Since she "woke up" a week or two ago, she's been pounding anything I put in the cage.

So cute! I also call mine a "she" without knowing the true gender. I just like the idea of my bluey being a female, and since her name is Emma, she has no choice haha. Love the pics !!

I have a "she" and a "he" with little evidence of either. I think it is because "she" is sweet and "he" is nasty. How sexist!!! :oops:
