Incubator!!

[lazzara8478]

I just ordered my incubator! I bought it on LLLreptile.com
I was told that if she layed one fertile batch shes got more to come so I'm preparing myself. I also bought vermiculite and a thermometor.

How far do they usually wait in between eggs? Her eggs were laid on the 17th or 18th.

It varies but most of mine lay 2-3 weeks apart, and every clutch was fertile.

 

[lazzara8478]

are you serious?? wow! so I should expects eggs again soon?

 

[TheHiddenGecko]

I would expect them again in about 2-3 weeks as stated before. Some females can take up to 5 weeks to lay again. It all depends.

 

[lazzara8478]

Well its a good thing I got the Incubator then....LOL

 

[GeckoMandi]

Yeah and expect at least 6-8 clutches maybe more, it just all depends I think that is average though well for mine it is. I would read up on some egg and hatchling caresheets to caring for that many you need heat, housing food etc.

 

[lazzara8478]

ok...whats a good temp to calibrate the bator at? I want to get it set up and stable awhile before she goes.

 

[GeckoMandi]

Do you want males or females?

Here's a good caresheet to read up on

Ok I'll read there...thankyou. Not sure what I want...I think Id just be happy with healthy hatchlings

You can incubate to get a mix of both.
