|
This one finally made an appearance 3 days after the first. It's another stripe (gargoyle gecko).
It's eyes are more of a grey colour than any of the others I've had hatch.
It's quite a difference when you compare it to the eyes of this one.

Thanks guys
Patchy - To give you an idea of their hatching size, in the first image he is sitting on top of a milk bottle lid. They are quite chunky babies in comparison to Crested hatchlings. _________________ Best wishes, Jackie

very nice Jackie, looks like you have sussed out the rhaco incubation now.
Have you many more eggs cooking? This is my first year with gargoyle eggs, not had any hatch yet but the first can't be too far away  _________________

Thanks again folks....
I've had 6 babies hatch so far and have another 5 eggs cooking (I think it's 5). I've lost two eggs this season which were laid while I was away on holiday. The female laid them underneath her water bowl of all places. I think she must have turned them.
It feels odd this year as it's the first season I haven't bred Cresteds. In a couple of years my male leachie will be ready to meet his female. Then the real fun will begin...lol. _________________ Best wishes, Jackie
