Corinne,

Hopefully she will lay another clutch or two. The female can retain sperm, so there is a chance the eggs will be fertile. With minimum effort, you'll be able to hatch the eggs. I'm sure you'll have no trouble selling the offspring, although I'm sure you'll want to keep a round of babies back for yourself. good luck.

Well there's no need for my ways to be called stupid as you put it. I did get on several other forums and was told to freeze the egg and discard it. How about someone tells me how to hatch the eggs she may lay in the future instead of bashing me. And I will not give anything back to the pet store I bought her from. They are not very edcuated about the care of thier reptiles. I bought a leo from them at the same time I bought this one and she died from mbd. I have been looking for incubation temps and things like that and I can't find any info on this lizard. Now do these lizards cycle infertile eggs like beardies do? And if that's the case how do I know if they are fertile or not.

put the eggs in a deli cup on absolutely dry sand. Poke holes in the delicup and put the lid on. Now fill another deli cup with water and no lid. Put both these delicups in a plastic shoebox or tuperware or whatever and close the lid. Now put this somehwere preferably dark, and definitely warm (80+)...on top of the fridge, near the water heater, etc. between 80-100 days, and you will have babies. They usually lay 2 eggs at a time. They are very fragile, so be careful picking them up....and stay off the forums that told you to discard the eggs

[Corrine]

I will give it a go if she lays again. How do I know if the eggs are fertile? I'm assuming they will be similar to beardie eggs in telling if they are fertile or not?

Since some or many of us may not keep bearded dragons, you might ought to elaborate on how that's done....

If its like numerous geckos and other lizards, within a couple weeks it will rot and/or mold/collapse/ smell bad. If they are fertile nothing appears to happen/ they get pink/ they may swell slightly/ eventually a juvie pops out. Not to state the obvious...
...and with some species you can shine a flashlight from the opposite side you are viewing and see pink/yellow with tiny red veins/lines throughout.

The eggs from Teratoscinus are hard shelled, and very brittle. Bearded dragons lay soft shelled eggs, so be very careful when moving the eggs from your new geckos (assuming she lays more). Also, you incubate Bearded dragon eggs on a moist medium. Teratoscincus eggs need to be incubated on a dry medium with a high relative air humidity.

[Corrine]

Ok so what about temps? If I put them ,say on top of the cable box they'll stay warm enough or do they need more heat than that? Also how long between clutches? I believe she's going to lay more, she's getting a little belly on her.

[mdmlss23]

sorry to say i think that she is a przewalski if you want to compare look back to the previous page of this forum

[ptenopus]

the cable box should be fine, basically the eggs need to "cook" at 78-90. Anywhere between those temps and even a little lower or higher will work.
Also, now that we have established that you have a female Teratoscincus przewalski, its time to start looking for a male!
