So I slide back the glass door and put my fingers near him he did not move so I reached out and petted his head , Thanks must be said to Fatal_S as she said he would probably poo all over me so taking advice from someone else (forgive me I forget your name) I took a soft warm towel and let him hide in it so glad I did cause right on cue he let it all out
he got braver and went for a wander over me he liked to hide in my hair but he was really good and I ran my finger rounds his mouth by his eyes over his head down his legs and touched his little toes then down his body to his tail (thought it would be a good idear to get him used to that (skink check-up) when I put him back in his home on his basking rock he was so relaxed I had to put his tail back in so I could shut the door, then he looked at me like hey is that it lol! so all in all went well
