Cyrtodactylus peguensis zebraicus eggs

Found these the other night in the peguensis viv. Any incubation tips would be very much appreciated

What your doing looks pretty good, just make sure to keep the temps in the low to mid 70's. 78 degrees is about the max that I would allow with these eggs. I used a 5" high plastic food storage containor with a few small holes at the top. I hatched out a few pegu's on slightly damp coco fiber, it took about 100 days for them to hatch. But from what I heard from others, it can take anywhere from 3-5 months. Good luck!

Are these C.p.peguensis or zebraicus?

Thanks a lot for the info, I have the incubat or set at around 70 deg, so hopefully they should be fine

I bought them as Peguensis, but I have read a thread on here about there not being any Peguensis. So they may be zebraicus - I would be interested to know either way, if you know a way to tell the difference

Congratulations Julie! Let's hope they hatch

Do you have any pics of the adults that you can share? If so, I can tell you which subspecies you have.

Julie,

These 3 specimens are all C. p. zebraicus. And very good looking ones if I might add! The way you tell the difference is all in the pattern. C. peguensis peguensis has spots covering its entire body. C. peguensis zebraicus has spots only on the top of the head, and the back, they have white stripes on the sides. Great pics

Thanks for the identification, Jimmy.

Hoorah for Julie

!!! Keep up the great breeding. Look forward to pictures of hatchlings and hopefully a pair of my own someday soon.
