I work at a pet store and they recently had some skinks come in. They're cool little lizards but I would like to know more about them in case someone asks about them. The caresheet they have has the scientific name as Mabuya sp. reaching a size of 8 to 12 inches. They are a brownish color with white spots circled with black. There are two of them together, I don't know the sex of either, they eat great and seem very healthy (alert, active, ski fits right not loose). Any help would be appreciated, I know it's only a matter of time before someone asks me about them and I want to know what I'm talking about when that time comes.
Thanks for your time,
Todd
