New skink... what species?

Postby jorydreptiles » Tue Jun 25, 2019 1:26 pm

I just bought a blue tongue from a petco. He’s been there’s for 7 months (which is a part of why I bought him) and they *apparently* have lost every bit of information they had on him. I have no idea how old he is or what species he is or even where he came from. All I know is he is very scared/aggressive and a picky eater.
Can anyone help me identify his species? I don’t know if you can see in the image but he also has a few very small orange dots in some of the black parts on his back.
I tried googling it but I’m still extremely unsure.
