hey guys, so i am packing for my trip to florida I leave tomorrow at 12noon. I am making my rounds in the tanks and feeding all of my animals and to my surprise I find 2 leopard gecko eggs in the nest box which is hardly filled with vermiculite. I had 2 females in the box at the time I was feeding and went to remove them from the lay box so that they could eat. When i removed them i found the 2 eggs which are still soft and wet. they are a very nice size but one of the eggs on one end of it looks a little empty on the one end. I was totally unprepared for this so I ran and got my incubator and plugged it in and its currently firing up. I know years ago I use to incubate them at 85F degrees for a mix of males and females. What type of humidity % do they need? I use to do 2 parts vermiculite 1 part water. i used 16oz cups with holes right at the soil level for air exchange across the soil to prevent mold.
On hand right now i only have Vermiculite and coco fiber soil and jungle bed. so any suggestions on what to incubate with to what ratio with water that would work well would be appreciated.
I am letting the eggs harden now i dont want to try and move them while they are so soft and I am going to work on a container to incubate them in. what a bad time for them to come.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
