Anyone have experince with them? They look awesome and i heard theyre a good species to work with.
 
Do you mean crocodile skinks? I kept some of these for a short time they are a very very shy species lots of hiding.

I have a pair of these guys. One will hide in its log all the day long but the other gets out and perches in the open. I give my guys gut loaded crickets and mist twice a day. They like it in the mid 80s. I think they are cool little guys. I don't handle mine at all, they are a display animal for me, but I enjoy them. Here is a real good website for them:

Very cool little critters :) They are quite shy for sure. I have a friend with a pair, and baby now from them. He keeps them with very moist substrate (higher humidity seem better for them he's noticed). He uses cypress mulch with them.
