Assuming I'm right, I'll update after he's gone.
I knew stuff just happens to Uros and that they're more fragile than many herps, but honestly I'm getting pretty worn down by my experience with them. This will be the second one I've lost and no hatchlings yet ever.  |

I am very sorry to hear about the tenuous state of your Uro.
How long have you been keeping them?
Is it possible for you to troubleshoot husbandry with the GU members who have experienced success with these fragile geckos? You could be among those who say  ...hatchlings!

He died Sunday night.
Elizabeth, it's frustrating for me but not really because I've multiple failures over a long period of time. I just paired this pair together in Feb., and they were the first pair I had together. It's just super frustrating because they were my only hope of eggs this year. Now I have to wait til next year when I'll have three different species paired.
I can't complain too much since I've been keeping Uros for less than a year, but the two that I have lost were freak things and both losses meant one less breeding pair each.
Wait til next year... |

So sorry to hear of your recent loss of this pair. We learn from our experiences. That is good for our next geckos, even though saddening.
 for hatchlings next season......

clarification- I didn't lose this mossie pair. I lost a female fimbriatus, leaving me with the male from that pair and the female from this one. Not that it matters... thanks everybody. Next year it is then!
