Without probing or popping (which may result in damage), you can determine the sex by changing the substrate to paper or old towels. Even old carpet will work good. When the males eliminate - they leave sperm plugs with it. This is usually quite frequent in growing skinks, especially in spring. If there is no sperm plugs, it is safe to assume you have a female.
Hope that helps,
