Tell us about your setup and husbandry practices, perhaps we can try to be more specific.

I kept 1.1 in a 2'x'1 plastic enclosure. �I just introduced another female this week. �The male and female are both about a year old. �The female is about 3 1/2 to 4 inches long. �The male is just a bit long. �The clutch I described was her first set. �The second set became moldy in weeks. �The are fed dusted crickets and waxworms (usually crickets). �I dust with Miner All. �Crickets are fed the Flukers Cricket food diet and apples for moisture.
As for incubation media, I have been using damp vermiculite in a dixie cup incubated at 82 degrees. �The egg laying chamber is a dixie cup with a hole in the side and damp vermiculite in there as well. �She has been laying the eggs in there and burying them. �The substrate I use is the Forest Blend stuff. �(I can't remember who makes it)
Is that enough information?
Thanks!
