I have been keeping these beautifull lizards since februari of this year. I have had some "problems" with temperature and their shedding. A few weeks ago both animals got white backs and it turned out to be shedding, and they are shedding ok and I find large pieces of shedded skin..

Since a week now the temps here are rising and the temp. in the vivariam was also getting to the high 20 degrees celsius (max air temp was about 29 degrees) This was not ok and I found my animals to be unhappy and not moving around!! I turned of the headpad underneath the cage (German Orchid headpad!, does not exceed 25 degrees!) Now the temperature inside is about 21/22 degrees and my female is climbing the wals and branches now! The male is also more active and shows his face more often!
The female is now sleeping upside down at the wall!!

How does the mating rituals look like with these animals !!!

Well just wanted to share this..

I have a croc skink, and I know that if they do not have high humidity they're shed skin will harden on they're toes and cause limb loss. Also I've learned they need temp. variants 72F on the cool end of they're cage and about 82F on the warm end.
