The skink you are referring to is likely the Eastern Red-Headed Skink, also known as the Eastern Five-lined Skink (Plestiodon fasciatus). Males exhibit a vibrant red or orange head and body, especially during the breeding season, while females and juveniles are typically brown with lighter stripes. They are commonly found in wooded areas and gardens throughout South Carolina. This species is known for its smooth scales and agile movements.
