Eastern Stripped Skinks

[hornet]

Got 2 of these little skinks a few days ago, they are only about 1-2months old but already approx garden skink size. Pics aint the best as they are so fast and flighty. Enclosure is a 54l plastic tub with a wooden stack under the basking light and a piece of dead wood at the cool end. Only got this setup today so yet to get readings on the basking temp.

(off topic, but did you get an ID of the stick insects i sent you..? - pm me)

I'd assume you can, they are very widely distributed along the coast from north west WA down to eastern SA, every state apart from tasmania. No i didnt get the pics, can you make a thread here and post em up?
