Baby Water Skinks

[JMugleston]

here's my skink he is big already 1 year old since i bought him and also not to offend you but if your quite confuse on the species they are Philippine crocodile skink (gray's water skink) and also yes very simple to care i have a pair of them but 1 died out (i dont know why).and also they are quite fast and very good escapee i had this guy escaped 2x and it was a nightmare to find so luckily i found him again.Thanks hope i helped on those species

Water skinks can be very aggressive toward each other when they're young. Babies should be housed individually and adults can be kept in pairs/trios, with no more than one male per cage. My cages are quite large for a lizard this small so that may play into the reason why my adults can live together year round and others claim this is not possible. With this group of lizards, it seems most unexplained baby deaths can be attributed to bullying or aggression from the cagemates. If you noticed one growing substantially faster than the other, then bullying is more than likely your culprit and the leading factor in the mysterious death of your baby skink. You may never see them actually fight, but you will see the signs of bullying. Possibly missing tail tips as well.

T. grayi are much more slender than the species I keep. Their heads aren't as broad and the T. apulus and they don't seem to retain any real noticeable degree of banding that you see in the juveniles and adults of T. grayi.
