Re: [Gecko] cyrtopodion scaber baby:)

[Racodactylus]

I keep "these."  I ordered 1.2 of them, .1 is something different, something
I'm not quite sure of.  The other 1.1 was indeed C. scaber and an egg was
laid in about 2 weeks upon arrival.  Unfortunatly, it was imfertile.  Maybe 3
weeks later, the female kicked things up a bit and 2 clutches of SINGLE eggs
were laid with in 2 WEEKS!  When the third week rolled round, she was gravid
with 2 eggs, and subsequently suffered from egg binding and died.  I was
unable to pothsumously remove the eggs.

These seem to be quite productive deserticulous geckoes, the first of mine
should be hatching soon, but I know little about the incubation data of the
species.  I keep the eggs on top of dry sand at 83F and in the same incubator
as my Eublepharids and their incubation parameters are to provide desert eggs
with enough water.

I'm really not to sure how this genus/species fits into gekkonid evolution
and exactly what it is realated too, but I find it easy to compare them with
most geckoes from that area (Arabia...) such as Hemidactylus, Tropiocolotes,
maybe a touch of Stenodactylus in habits, and so reproductively, these could
be a "feed'm to breed'm" type of gecko or an animal requireing or benefiting
from a few weeks of hibernation.

I keep mine hot and dry.   10 gallon, sand, stacked rocks with vertical and
horizontal crevices, 105-110F basking spot, weekly misting, frequent feeding
easy on the supplementation.  Currently, I have no plants, but I'm picking a
few plants up in the weeks to come.

I think I touched upon all your questions.
