Hello and welcome!

Yes, it's best to check out the FAQ and care sheet sections first, then you can ask questions that come up. It's a better way to get information than just have us all rattle on about getting a skink and you can go back to those areas over and over to learn more.

When i first got him i was real eager to start handeling him right away, but just a warning you that most likely wont be the case, but don't get discouraged it may seem like forever, but they do eventually come around, (every skinks different though)
