Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Looks like a Male Gilbert's Skink to me.
To my knowledge, Broadhead Skinks do not occur in Ca.

Thank you the broad headed does look so similar to Gilbert's skink I looked up broad headed and to my knowledge they prefer damp areas not dry desert climates and Bakersfield ca. Is desert area I can believe this to be a Gilberts skink male since he has no stripes and looks just like the pictures I have found online about Gilberts skink maybe I will find a female now

Good luck with your new guy!
Skinks, in general, are fun to keep, and many times calm down enough to take food from your hands after a while.

The photo is a 5 Lined Skink I photographed while out herping several years ago. Went back a few days later to hopefully get a shot of the hatchlings pipping, but the eggs had already hatched and the youngsters dispersed.
