Nice male you got there.
How big is the viv?

Some info I found:

"T. s. scincus can be kept in small groups (not more then one male). T. s. keyserlingi can better be kept in pairs or separately. An enclosure of 50 × 40 × 40 cm (~20 × 16 × 16 inches) will do for a pair or an individual. Give each individual an opportunity to find shelter." (source: GGA Teratoscincus scincus ssp.)

I'm keeping a pair off keyserlingii myself, and that works well for me. My couple seems very happy this way, so I wouldn't change it.
Once your's are completely settled in, they will do great!
Kind regards,

Cindy

I'm not sure about other frog-eyes, but keyserlingii females can have really bad PMS when they're gravid. Some are okay, some okay sometimes, others are grouchy and irritable as long as they're producing eggs. They take it out on the male. If you do keep them together, you should have an enclosure ready for the male if he gets roughed up, or at least have so many hiding places that he can escape safely.

I suppose I'm quite lucky to have such a docile couple...
They have never showed any signs off agression toward each other, and are together now for four years.
So, although rare, a happy mariagge still exists!
Greetz,

Cindy
