They do get thinner, but they don't make as dramatic a change as my leopard geckos. What I do is carefully brush aside the top layer of soil. They are usually buried close to where the skinks hang out. Often the female is curled around her eggs, in which case you want to encourage her to go elsewhere while you look. She may come after you for poking around in her nest. I have a nest box that sometimes they use, and sometimes they lay under it, and sometimes they lay under the water dish, and sometimes just very deep neck to their basking rock. So far it has always been on the cool side of the tank. The cool side actually gets the most natural sunlight and they like to hang out there. They do have a 2.0 uvb light but i think the sunlight fools them.

3 fire skinks, 1 blue tongue skink, 2 plateds, 2 beardies, 1 mali uromastyx, and a wide assortment of geckos.
