Ah, that does make a difference if they are large skeletons. In the future, please include that detail.
If you prefer, requiring a perception check would be fair... but Since size is kind of an obvious thing then I would then appreciate a call for a perception check because I dont think I'd guess to check their size.
As a note, I am in no way upset. I was just shocked and now I am presenting ways I would prefer it be handled in the future.
Also:

Initiative
Initiative Checks
At the start of a battle, each combatant makes an initiative check. An initiative check is a Dexterity check. Each character applies his or her Dexterity modifier to the roll. Characters act in order, counting down from highest result to lowest. In every round that follows, the characters act in the same order (unless a character takes an action that results in his or her initiative changing; see Special Initiative Actions).
If two or more combatants have the same initiative check result, the combatants who are tied act in order of total initiative modifier (highest first). If there is still a tie, the tied characters should roll again to determine which one of them goes before the other.
