Drag the sun. The sheet states a night temperature, so the rail follows it.

The numbers
Thermal gradient
Day: a real gradient, 33–37°C warm against 24–29°C cool, so the animal chooses. Night: 18–21°C.
Why
Same scale on every sheet here, so two species compare by eye.
The sheet stateswarm 33-37 °C / cool 24-29 °C / night 18-21 °C
Humidity
The sheet states15-35% during the day, spike up to 90-100% at night
UVB
The sheet statesFerguson Zone 2; the UVI on the basking surface should be between 2.0-3.0; Arcadia T5 HO Forest 6% OR Zoo Med T5 HO Reptisun 5.0 at mesh: 10-13″ / 25-33cm, no mesh: 14-17″ / 35-43cm; Arcadia T5 HO Desert 12% OR Zoo Med T5 HO Reptisun 10.0 at mesh: 16-20″ / 40-50cm, no mesh: 20-26″ / 50-70cm
Identity
Enclosure and conditions
Enclosure
Drawn from the stated numbers. Only what the sheet states is drawn inside.
Why
The rectangle carries the exact width-to-height ratio of the figures above it, and the ruler under it places that width on the 0–250 cm scale every sheet here shares, so two species still compare at a glance. Nothing is added that the sheet does not name: a lamp drawn on a sheet that never mentions one would be invented equipment. What the sheet leaves out is listed rather than left blank, because an empty tank reads as « none needed ».
The sheet statesno smaller than a 30″L x 12″W x 12″H (75 x 30 x 30 cm) enclosure, or 20 US gallons
What your climate adds
This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.
Diet
Feeding rhythm
Twenty-eight days, one row. Each band is a meal window. The sheet gives several ages on one line; this is the adult figure.
Why
The windows widen as they go because the interval is a range: four meals after a 10–14 day cycle land anywhere between day 40 and day 56.
The sheet statesOcellated skinks are primarily insectivorous, which means that their diet is mostly composed of arthropods (bugs); Crickets, Discoid roaches, Dubia roaches, Flightless fruit flies, Grasshoppers/locusts, Hornworms, Isopods, Mealworms, Silkworms. Babies — daily; Juveniles and adults — 2-3x/week; Pregnant and postpartum females — daily
Common questions
Can I handle it?
Not really. They are quick and slippery and dive straight into the substrate when startled.
How big does it get?
Around 20 to 30 centimetres, small and smooth-bodied with short legs.
What does it eat?
Small insects. Feeding cost is about as low as it gets for a lizard.
Can I keep several together?
Usually yes in a large dry enclosure with plenty of hides and enough feeding spots.
What it needs
Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation.

What this sheet states
This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.
UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
