75 Gallon PA Woods Vivarium (Toads & Skinks)

Nothing short of a miracle

So I found the male Skink again today and he was very tame. I documented him on video for my new video coming. So I left the room for like 2 hours and I came back to see the male leading the female out of the hiding spot and to look out of the tank at me. They went to a part of the tank with no plants or rocks. When I got them they ran from me and were afraid of me. Today they were very tame and let me get as close as I wanted to them. I noticed that the Lizards wouldn't come out in the open and be tame like they were for no reason. Then I noticed the female looking at the smaller tank across the room with her one offspring inside it and it was basking. She watched the offspring (which has the name Ruby) for a while and noticed it was safe. The male was scoping out the tank for a week and decided there was no danger and he found the offspring first because he led the female to that spot. She too saw me as no threat and she seemed satisfied because after she looked at the offspring and looked at me the male went slowly to the hiding spot and she did too which I have her on video going back to. They showed me where they hide and it was like from movie scene how special it was that the parents found the offspring and were satisfied that it was safe. I hope Ruby is a female because now it could live with it's parents in a Skink paradise. Pious was off in his territory and didn't care while this happened. He slept, but Ace (Female American Toad) was watching because the Lizards were close to her territory. She crawled over after a while and put her front leg on the male Skink and he just stared at her and ran away. She was very slow because she was sleeping and they woke her up. She was very calm about them and was uninterested after he ran away. This was very special and it means more videos are coming out now.
