Eggs
The Common Garden Skink is oviparous and lays small, white eggs between summer and mid-autumn. The female usually lays about six eggs, often in communal clutches that may contain as many as 250 eggs altogether, usually under a cluster of rocks to keep them safe from predators. The eggs hatch in a matter of weeks after they are laid.
