Typical Phelsuma incubation techniques, nothin' fancy! I put mine on water bottle cap lids and put inside a 16oz clear deli cup. This all goes in a nice humid incubator that is between 50 and 80% humidity. Congrats, and good luck! 1/2 the trouble is finding the eggs! Julie B. Chad Mayer wrote:

Julie, I appreciate your words. When I bought the geckos I was so happy I had found them for such a decent price. I had been thinking about buying this species for a few months and I had everything I needed to create the vivarium (minus the live plants) all set aside. I saw them advertised on a lo

They have put on weight and are eating fine but I was really looking forward to their first negative test.
