Reptile & Amphibian Forums

i just got a skink that i have had my eye on for the past 2 weeks. the problem is, i dont know what species it is. its about 8 inches long, really fast, dark with a white belly and orange eyes. if anyone knows what species it is i would appreciate knowing. i have looked in many books but there are so many color variations between species i am clueless. also, this probably sounds stupid but i refer to him as the sausage because he has a very thick fat body and little tiny legs
thanks
