 What kind of Skink!? please help

Hey, I have no clue what kind of Skink this is, and I need to know to give him/her the proper care, I was told it’s a fived line skink, I know there is no way! this Skink is way to big and the colors are different, and it doesn’t even have five lines! aha I’ve searched on the web for hours, I really hope someone here can help! he/she is about 12 to 14 inches. eats like crazy! loves to bury him/herself, and loves loves loves Pinkies!
Thank you!

hmm well i did a litlle reasearch and it looks like a white striped skink not entirley sure but thats what it looks like. i can tell you one thing though, get him off that sand immediatly! it is very dangerous and causes impaction in all lizards. dont use calcisand or calciumsand it encourages your lizard to eat it because of the calcium and yet it kills them. he would be better off on paper towel, topsoil, or just plain old dirt. feed him earthworms, crickets, silkworms, mealworms, ect. dont feed pinkies 24/7 becaue they are fatty. feed those to him maybe 2 times a week. offer a uvb light also. :D good luck :D

It is a Zonosaurs quadrilineatus called the four striped zonosaur. Quote from lizard care from A to Z. Very close to plated skink.
