Robust skink pics

Tried to grab some better shots of the robust skinks by luring them out with a roach, it kind of worked till one leaped up and grabbed the roach out of the tongs. God these guys can eat lol.

Do you know if they are male + female hornet? I wana know Wat sex my baby water skinks are but I dunno how to find out n def not guna try, guess will have to see if the ones I end up keeping hav babies or not lol

these guys are too small to sex but when they are big enough i'm hoping to get a good idea on sex, if i have 2 of the same sex hopefully i can buy or trade for the sex i need but i'm hoping these guys turn out male female

These guys are great.
I love watching them outside untill they see you.
The rain is making them very bold, coming out for the smallest glimpse of sunshine!

 

[hornet]

get some pics of them if ya can. They are meant to be common all up the east coast but i dont believe i have ever seen them in the wild lol. I have seen the copper tailed skink but never these guys

 

[Snakeluvver2]

Yea all we get in my immediate area are garden skinks (Lampropholis delicata) and Snake eyed skinks (Cryptoblepharus pulcher). I believe i may have seen a tree skink a while ago but was the only one
