A pair of skinks in the neighborhood.
 

This lovely couple has been hanging around between the rodent building and the reptile building. Think they are thinking about starting a family of little skinkettes?

A Pair of Skinks in the Neighborhood
 

The picture of the 2 skinks labeled "2 skinks in the neighborhood" look like the skink that I brought home over the weekend can anyone tell me what kind they are and how do I tell male from female???

Oh I forgot to add if it's not shown my email address: I'm trying to find out what kind of Skink these 2 are as I belive the one without any lines (the one on the left) looks exactly like the one I brought home over the weekend....also any feeding tips I put mealworms and crickets in there and POOF they where gone, do they eat any fruit as well??? my email is Bshi692002@yaoo.com
any info would be greatly appriciated...

That's Bshi692002@yahoo.com
sorry for all the mis-spelling!!

Skink id...
 

They are either Broad-headed Skinks or Five-lined Skinks. The males have the red head in both species. They feed well on insects and the Broad-heads will even feed on smaller lizards. The Broad-heads are much larger than the Five-lined as adults. The Broad-head is also only found in the northern half of Florida.

Here's another pair running around this year....

Aw man I really like skinks. When I used to go to St. Augustine I saw a lot of critters running around but not skinks.

Cool :thumbsup: Great pics Rich. Skinks are neat.
