Space for future emeralds

Just finished setting up this 36x18x36 bioactive planned for a female pair of skinks. While I give it time to grow in, what are good places to look for captive bred skinks ideally sexed. Seems pretty limited out there and I worry about getting potentially two males, or a breeding pair and hear everywhere that keeping them in a group is better than a single one.

Do your skinks like to sleep on you?

I’ve only had my ETSs for about 3 weeks, but the past few days one of them has been insisting on coming out of the enclosure around when their lights go off, and promptly finds somewhere on my person to tuck in and almost immediately fall asleep. I’m convinced they would stay there all night given the chance.

I find it ridiculously cute, but am wondering if anyone else has had this as well?

Emerald green tree skink

I've been setting up a 36x18x36 bioactive for a pink tongue, but I think I'm going to house an emerald green instead because I love the heavy planting and want something more delicate, along with the space being more spacious for one. Is it ok to house these guys alone? Or should i definitely have at least two? Also if I had two females do I need two separate distinct basking areas?

Why???????????

Why is he?? Doing this?? He does this all the time, asleep, awake. He does come down and explore, eat and talk to the other skink but this is just so weird..
