At the moment im feeding my 5 about 20-30 small crix once every 1-2 days, i cant get phoenix worms that easily so thats about it for them, may try mini mealworms too just as an extra ... That seem enough for 5 adults?

Remember that when your eggs hatch the hatchlings will be quite small @ 3/4" in total lenght and you'll need to have really small crickets or fruit flies to feed them.

Yeah at the moment my hatchling is feeding on micro crickets, and the crickets in my Ackies vvi have been breeding which make perfect food too ... i guess im just worried he wont exclusive access to the tiny crickets in the adults viv ... may leave him where he is for now ...

i keep 1.2 S. sthenodactylus. they have bred once before. found the eggs by accident whilst cleaning so incubated them. only one hatched though. maybe i turned the other over by accident. i would love to have more but like you say they arent easy to find in the uk. shops keep tryin to sell me tropiocolotes claiming they are stenos.

I know what u mean hard to come by, i was lucky to find a group of 3 females and 2 males being sold for £50, so i snapped them up, but like i'm looking for more, my local shop is hopefully getting some i a couple of weeks ... where are u based?

[discodazz]

im in newcastle. if any come up round here ill give u a shout providing i havent already bought them all.

[Tokieee]

Hello!

Saw your pics of your stenodactylus. I keep 1.2 of these since Dec. 07 and had 14 eggs in the last 2 months. My first egg hatched 2 weeks ago but the hatchling didn't survive. I found it half way out of the shell, fully formed, eyes open....it had even begun it's first shead.

I then looked closely at all my other eggs and found approx. 8-10 of them had dried up yellow fluid in the bottom of them. Bummer..... now I'm waiting for the other 4 to hatch. Hopefully I will have a hatchling soon....

I'm interested in your hatching story...

Best,

Jennifer
