not sure it is a scincoides, possibly IJ, but also has fused scales around the mouth. mmmmmm. Not the best specimen in the world a little emaciated - possible inbreeding depression?? I've seen a similar look in lizards I bought from another breeder aargh - not talking about the toes. Some context on this photo is required.

The traits this skink is showing are NOT desirable

There is something very wrong with this little guy and his price should be lowered because of it, he should not be described as a "rare" variation with an inflated price.

Not a good skink for breeding.
The mutations are not good, not something you want to pass on to more generations.
Might be a good pet skink, but not a good, desirable, rare skink for breeding, in my opinion.

I wouldnt say its a breedable trait nessacarilly,cant rule it out but nothing reallu jumps out to warrant wanting to breed for any of that

The scale thing could just be a result of it being undernourished,iys awfullu thin looking,hip bones present and lacking fat reserves in the tail,likely dehydrated

Kind of looks like an average run of the mill recent import that needs to get into good hands

Please dont take any offence to that,bit of tlc and it will likely fo very well

Thanks :)

This is not a genetic mutation but likely due to poor health of its mother and he was probably damaged as fetus and born this way.

He should be fine as a pet, his defects should not hurt him in the long run and with some high quality food and proper humidity levels he should live a good life

I'm not sure...
I do think it have some genetic mutation,the toes are unlikely caused by poor health of its mother,and that mutation can also change the scales somehow...

Thank you
I'm going to try to mate, in future research to genetic characteristics
(谢谢
我打算在未来的尝试交配,研究是否能够遗传特征)
