Yesterday was a huge day in the kimhowelli vivarium.

First I awoke from a nap to find my oldest female (Bandit) laid her must recent clutch of eggs.

Later this day when I went to check in the vivarium for the most recent eggs I found a nice surprise! A baby from a previous clutch (one which i thought had been eaten) had hatched out. The little bugger was already in protection mode against its father as I scooped it from the vivarium on a credit card. Sadly there is no sign of its sibling and I found two empty eggs. :/

About an hour after removing the lil bugger from the vivarium I spotted the male already mating with the female who laid eggs earlier in the day.

As the night wore on, I spotted my second female (Ninja) in labor.

I attached a pic of the new lil one. Pardon the quality, I was shaking in excitement while taking the pic. :P

Very cute! The hatchlings and youngsters even look

Have you found the other hatched gekko, or is it still missing?

I have had a few lygo's hatch in the adults viv, and have managed to not find them before up to a week later. So keep an eye out for the sibling too - you might be lucky.

I unfortunately found the other one dead. I will spare the horror story that goes with it. :/

i recently got a new female to add to the genes in my kimhowelli trio, she was placed in the viv and the male errr 'got her' within 30 seconds. The males of this species REALLY push the issue

Hahaha agreed. As soon as my male notices the females are without eggs he is after them.
