Hi Jared, If I did not show up at my hometown gig folks would think I was deceased! ;) See you there! Julie B. Jared Morris wrote:
Thanks Julie, I'll be patient, and stop messing with the eggs.You gonna be at the Sac Reptile show this year, by the way? I hear it's gonna be bigger than ever!Julie Bergman wrote:Hi Jared,I would be worried at this point if it has been more than five days. 3-4 days is normal between any gecko hatchlings of the same clutch. I would not suggested that much candling; probably once at some point is more than sufficient. You don't want to disturb developing eggs. I don't candle at all, I figure handling them after they are a week or so old can only be detrimental.Yes, dry substrate does lead to dents. You'll have to wait and see on the egg remaining, I wait a minimum of 100days.Julie B. Jared Morris wrote:I am beginning to get worried about the second egg. How long can it be between clutch mates hatching in Uroplatus henkeli? Should I help it along at any point, and if so, how?Is there any danger of candling the eggs too much? I generally do it once or twice a week to check development.Also, there have been two more clutches laid recently, both showing some minor dents in the eggs. The substrate they were buried in was slightly dry, and I wonder if that caused it. Could these eggs still be viable?Thanks, Jared _______________________________________________ Global Gecko Association http://www.gekkota.com Classifieds http://www.gekkota.com/cgi-gekkota/classifieds.cgi gecko mailing list gecko@lists.gekkota.com http://lists.gekkota.com/mailman/listinfo/gecko_______________________________________________ Global Gecko Association http://www.gekkota.com Classifieds http://www.gekkota.com/cgi-gekkota/classifieds.cgi gecko mailing list gecko@lists.gekkota.com http://lists.gekkota.com/mailman/listinfo/gecko_______________________________________________ Global Gecko Association http://www.gekkota.com Classifieds http://www.gekkota.com/cgi-gekkota/classifieds.cgi gecko mailing list gecko@lists.gekkota.com http://lists.gekkota.com/mailman/listinfo/gecko
