Sun skink (I think)

Large vivarium in Monsoon Forest, Chester, 20th May 2017.
This looks the same as the one MagpieGoose photographed last year, which was named on here as 'macularia', but almost certainly wasn't. While it doesn't quite match any multifasciata i've seen, it is a highly variable species. Great picture regardless!
 
@Swampy I find skinks very confusing: they so similar in shape and sometimes in colour, but they can change their colours as they grow :confused: I took the name from the Annual Report after a look at Google. Then I added the rhyme to the title :)
