Hi!
Just wondering, 'cuz I managed to fail the incubation of my gargoyle eggs. It was my first try at it, so I recon I'll get it next time.
Now, I wonder, are there any tips and tricks to get them breeding again?
The clutch I failed to hatch (I checked them, they had started to crumble, and inside there was only like powder-ish, yellow/white stuff) was laid about 3 weeks ago. Maybe a little longer than 3 weeks, but not as long as 4.
I keep it pretty humid in the gargoyle viv. (70-85%)
The heat is stable at about 23-26 celsius.
The size of the viv is 60x60x90cm, 90 being the tall side.
It has a rocky background that they can climb easily.
Also have a humidbox for them, covered by branches, and this is also where I want her to lay the eggs. In the humid box I have vermiculite, and the humidity I recon is about 90-100%
Last time she had laid the eggs deep in the bedding, I use coconut husk that is pretty wet, so I guess the eggs had been laying there for a week, but they were nice in shape, and white, and had veins when I lit them, but they got worse and worse after putting them in the incubator, I guess this is due to low humidity(?). :roll:
If ya'll need answers to anything more about the geckos or habitat, then please let me now, I really want to get this going and be able to produce my own gargoyles.
As a newb on this, I also hope to get some good trips and tricks about anything breeding gargoyle geckos!
Cheers,
Chris ;-)
