Temp for females?

[Neill]

Here it is what is your temp for Female geckos?

 

[Landen]

between your two posts you left out the temps between 82-89. Most are probably incubating within that gap.

82

actually 81-82 is about what people incubate females for and generally around 90 is what people incubate males for. 85 is the temp in which people will incubated to get a some what even percentages of males and females

I figured 83-89 gave mixes, I wanted to know just females and just males. Since last year i had 84-86 and had only 4 babies 3 male 1 female

I do 82.2 for my females...i dont knwo why the extra .2 i just do it and wont change haha

I see, I misread how you'd asked.... last year I did 85-86 the whole way for a mix of females to males. This year I'm incubating female @ 82 and then increasing most of them to 86, but some to 89-90 to compare the differences with the "tremper method". Males incubated at 89-90 the whole way.

 

[robin]

are you going to disclose that you have incubated your females using the tremper method?

have you ever used the tremper method before?

 

[Landen]

Yes, I provide all info on all of my hatchlings..... Each comes with a stats card with, weigh log, incubation info, parents info, feeding habits, and any other relevant information. I'm doing this with a few hatchlings this year to gain experience and to see it's results. I know some don't agree with that aspect and that's fine.

I was incubating at 80-81 but I got worried that the temps might dip too low on occasion, so I upped it to 81-82. I got 1 male out of about 75 hatches from that temp.

At 85 degrees you are still going to get majority females...

76 for holdbacks. 83-85 for sale geckos.

I incubate for females at 83 and males at 88. I figure at these temps I have a tolerance of plus/minus 2 deg for temp swings and thermometer accuracy issues. So far everything turns out the way I expect them too. Females generally hatch in 55-60 days and males in 35-40 days using these temps.
