Just wanted to know what some of you guys think about my set-up and how my skink is looking? (healthy or not etc.)
He's almost 4 months old, he's super active all the time! He loves climbing and exploring his tank! Just finished shed. Although I've noticed he does this
once in a while (usually when he's bored) he rubs his nose on the glass all around his tank or tries to climb the glass, I heard it's normal for them to do this but just wanted to make sure? Temps are fine, 90-95 F on his basking log and cool side is around the 70's F.
Anyways here's some pictures!

From the bit I've seen he looks pretty healthy. it may help the nose rubbing to put a backdrop in so he knows its a barrier.

Looks great! Nice job. The glass pushing/rubbing/climbing is inevitable, Skinks don't understand glass so he'll always try to push through it not getting why he can't.

I really like how you have your tank set up. I'm always changing mine because I can't make up my mind on how it should be set up

Nice home! When I got my 6 week old she started the climbing right away and I covered 3 sides with background sheets and it stopped for good. I think a lot get stressed with it all glass.
