Teratoscincus are NOT day geckos, exactly like fat-tails. They are nocturnal.
Which "frog-eyed" species are you getting?

Then it will be very difficult to give any care advice. The whole genus is present from Pakistan to Siberia, which means a lot of climatic differences according to each species and subspecies. Do you have any clue about the country your specimens come from?

Ok, so in other words you are getting Teratoscincus roborowskii. Giving them a winter rest with no food and low temps is absolutely essential to trigger breeding, but you have first to make sure the geckos are not infested by internal parasites (through a fecal sample taken to your reptile vet) and that their food intake is normal at other times of the year. Cooling them down to the low 50s °F will help. Reduce the duration of lighting, even natural, accordingly, down to 5-6 hrs a day during this winter cooling period.
