Will post pics asap!!! Only took 32 days! I have questions on what morph the little guy is. He is from normal male to raptor snow enigma. I think he might be a snow not sure though..

 

[forgivenick]

what was your incubation temp? I assume you incubated for male?

 

[Makatak123]

Congrats!!

 

[GeckosByCameron]

Yes incubated for a males at 88 degrees F. took only 32 days in my home made incubator that has proven it works! only cost me $40buckaroos! here is my newly hatched lil man!

 

[GeckosByCameron]

does he just look normal?

 

[forgivenick]

Nice gecko!

Can you share a pic of your DIY incubator. I have seen one DIY "how to" for homemade incubators, but it would always be nice to see other successful ones.

 

[GeckosByCameron]

Sure! Give me a little an I'll have full pics and setup of incubator. Was super easy. And cheap

He does look Mack Snow. It appears to be a Mack Snow het for Tremper Albino and Eclipse (RAPTOR)

Congrats on your first hatchling. I remember how exciting it is to find it.

Saaaweeeet!!! He is super funny! He runs all around his cage, and jumps when I tried to pick him up and put him in there! He even made a little yelp. Lol this is sooo cool! Quick question. Should I wait for about a week before I try to Feed him? Or could I offer him a baby cricket?

Wait till his first shed give him a water dish tho also yeah looks like a little mack snow nice gecko

I usually try to feed after I see the first poop, which is usually shortly after the first shed. Honestly, the thing i've been doing lately is just leaving a bowl of mealworms in the enclosure, and monitoring how much the baby is eating. I'm over the whole hand-feeding thing.
