What breed is my BTS?

Postby akoff » Wed Dec 08, 2021 4:12 pm

I adopted this BTS in an emergency situation without knowing much about the individual itself, but I managed to do enough research to take care of it for now. However, I cannot seem to come to a final decision on the breed! Can anyone help with this and possibly the sex, or how to sex it? It is approximately 15 inches long and seems to be a bit underweight, but we are working on the diet until the breed is determined! :) Thanks!

I would assume a female Irian Jaya perhaps? The best way to sex a skink is by checking for sperm plugs. If it drops a plug when using the bathroom then it is a male.

Males do not always drop visible sperm plugs. And the lack of which does not confirm female. Gender cannot be confirmed by looking at it here.
