Sorry Heather, i have not kept this species before. I have 2 suggestions however:
1. Have a look for incubation information on species that come from the same geographical area.
2. Leave the eggs in the vivarium. In my experience, with Day Geckos, females are excellent at selecting an area that holds suitable temperatures for egg incubation.
Hope this helps a little!! _________________ Fraser Gilchrist

Hi Fraser thanks for your help I had already removed the eggs as they had been laid right beneath the uv tube so temps would have been 40degrees approx I have found an article in a German mag that is very informative which says between 22 & 30 degrees so am trying 27 daytime & 23 night at these temps should roughly take 70 days I think? Thanks again Heatherxx |
