I just called out "Red Eyed Crocodile Skinks!" to no one. Fucking love these guys. They say "Meh" when you poke 'em.

They do?! Oh my god they're even cuter than imagined.

Edit: So I went looking on youtube and found out they don't really like to be held. They typically hide and stuff BUT this dude has the cutest lil skink ever. Jumps up for treats and comes running! There's just something beautiful and sweet about that type of trust between an animal with no hints of domestication at all and a person.

Here's the youtube short.

I knew one that said "Meh" so I assume they all do it.

When he said "Her husband..." and another skink came out, I lost it. I hope they had a wedding. I hope there was a reception. I want to know the guest list.
