Thumbs up C. irianjayensis hatchling

Had my first one hatch last night, these guys are more like a aboreal Varanid species than they are a gecko. They are just huge! Incubation can also last about as long as a human child, this guy only took 6 months to hatch, they can take longer (8-9 months)

Fresh out of the egg and already about the size of a sharpie maker:





Enjoy,
Derek

congratulations Derek! That's a great looking - and HUGE - hatchling!
It's interesting to hear about the incubation time as well. What sort of temperatures do you incubate at?
