Haven't seen Cheakie for a couple of days (may be outside (been quite cold the last few days struggling to get over 24degC and very windy (gale force winds), or she's simply sleeping off her last meal of insects (inside somewhere).
Just been Speedie and the little juvenile (calling this one Juvie for want of better name) visiting inside.
Had a very big breakthrough with Juvie, the little skink showed up while I was feeding Fluffy , spotted "him (??)" on the floor near my left foot and basking under floor lamp (a 26W UVB200 hung under a Komodo lamp stand - really seemed to be enjoying the UV (A & B) and this time didn't make a dash for cover when I said "hello" , just looked at me ( Fluffy) and then leapt onto the front of the lounge and in a flash was on the chair and only about 3 -4 inches from me and studying me while I quietly spoke to him.
Juvie is pretty good on the tooth, ate 4 large crickets and 4 mealworms as i dropped them to him.
Fluffy is getting really into BSF lavae (so long as I give only her the squeezed out meat and goo) , she's polishing of 12 - 14 per day, which is excellent as BSF lavae are very rich in calcium and highly nutritious .
She's getting really into snuggles now. She likes snuggling into my chest and arm near my arm pit.
