You can also go the the Repashy forums. There is a Uroplatus section
under species specific discussions. Between that one and the
geckophile site there is a great deal of information and not a whole
lot of bashing.

Hi Martin,
It is not a general rule that you don't let gecko eggs contact the
incubation medium. With Phelsuma you don't want the eggs to sit directly
on the incubation medium. Their eggs do not grow the way other types of
gecko eggs do, so the amount of water they can absorb is very limited.

You can actually just drop them in where the geckos will see them.
If you put the snails in at night and mist afterwards, they will start to move
and the geckos will notice them. There are hundreds of snail species
in Madagascar
and they are instantly recognized as food. Males will likely ignore t
As I remember you need to keep the snails for a period of time so they
can be free of poisons, anyone remember how long?

They need the temps to be around 70-75 during the day and 50-60 during the

the lighting at all?
