Its quite easy. Keep the temp nice and warm and give them some leaves to shelter under and to also help build their nest. Then hopefully in a week or 2 there will be little eggs the size of peas :) i think that you need a small fish tank and 2-4 skinks (wild) put alot of dirt & leaves and 1 rock that they can sun on ok feed them fly's, small worms, crickets, grasshoppers and maybe some mashed fruit. then u put some water in a small cup and put a spot for them to lay their eggs then let them do the rest in 2-3 weeks u will have about 7-8 little baby skinks running around but then u need a bigger tank!
