Dimples in scales and possible bruise?

Postby Taz » Sun Jul 11, 2021 10:47 am

My six week old skink has dimples in his scales. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Also there's a dent in one of his head scales that wasn't there before. I think he bruised it while climbing around looking for an escape.

I'm pretty sure the dent don his head you speak of is his "third eye" they use it to sense shadows and help regulate their body temperature. I am not sure about the dimple though.
