This is our first year. We have 6 eggs incubating from one female. They all appear fertile. The first clutch has now been incubating for almost 9 weeks at 75 degrees(Our bedroom room temp). Has anyone had there eggs incubating at that temp to get a guess on when these may hatch?
Thanks

Thanks for the replys. It has now been 68 days at 75 degrees. I am guessing it will take about 10-20 more days. If anyone has used 75 degrees, please give me a heads up.

Thanks

Has anyone hatched out a clutch for 75 degrees that wants to give me an approximate hatch date?
Thanks

I keep all of my Rhac eggs on a shelf in my basement (with ambient temp between 70-75*F). Incubation of R. ciliatus and R. auriculatus has been about 75 days or so.

Btw, I'm also in the Chicago area...ever been to any of the local shows?

We have. We go to Wheaton and Lake County. Both are very good shows. Are you there and what do you sell?

We have bought Crested from Arial and Leopards from Letkey. Both of these guys have great reptiles. We bought one leopard from Letkey from SEWERFEST(show was better last year).
Thanks
So at 74-75 I should be expecting some crested soon(It has been 72 days now).

I don't do Wheaton very often (a few times a year) and Lake County almost never. Ever stop by a table for CC Herps?

Back on topic, yes at those temps I'd expect hatching at around 80 days or less.

I have vended side-by-side with Dreamtime Reptiles (Nick Esposito)- the guy that used to be there selling Repashy diets.

I work with over 50 species of geckos alone, so I usually have a selection on the table. I'm going to shoot you a PM...

Thanks for all the input people. The time was 78 days as they both hatched last night(WOOOO HOOOOO). My wife called me at 1158pm to tell me that one hatched and when I got home at 1230 am, the other one was out as well. PICS to come via another thread later today.
