Default duh!

I thought that you were asking about hatchling set-ups. I NEED MORE COFFEE!!!

If the eggs are fertile, they are easy to hatch. I use perlite and vermiculite. If I'm out of one, I use the other. I've had success with both. I add equal parts verm/perl. to water by weight. I poke several small holes in the container lid, and I put the container in an artificial incubator. At 82-85 degrees F, the eggs hatch in about 60 days. Simple as that!

Just out of curiousity why do you have such high temperatures for your Milli. I have noticed this alot with other Australian species in the USA & Europe and just curious as to why?

The reason being is that 90-92 F is like 34 C & I never keep my Milli above 26 C in Summer which is like 79 F. This species in Australia is known for heat stress. I dont know of anyone who keeps their Milli above 26 C over here. Infact none of my geckos have ever been in a hot spot greater than 30 C being 88 F.

I have always wanted to know why such high temperatures?

I thought maybe that over time being bred and accustomed to these temperatures that they have adjusted - just curious as to what others keep their Milli at. Or maybe I am keeping them too cold.

Cheers in advance

Ari
