Default "normal" incubation time?

I have Gekko vittatus that have bred, laid eggs and so far have produced multiple clutches. The first clutch of two has been sitting at 85/maybe a few degrees more for around 3 months (neglected to write down the exact day)- should I assume they go for 80-100 days and all is well so far, or how long *should* they take (all things being relative) ?

Seem like I have been watching the pot waiting for it to boil forever now....

They can take up to 200 days. Usually around 110 days depending on temps.

Thanks Cliff, now I don't have to wonder if they are overdue or not. Using an LED light I definately saw some developement in the eggs a while back. A couple days ago the pair was copulating again.... I look forward to the little ones hatching!

Do not worry, over the year you will have more babies than you can sell and normal hatching rate for vittatus is 100% if you are not providing extremely bad conditions.
