Cool Chondrodactylus angulifer of 2010

Hi,

I wanted to share some pictures of my first 3 angulifer hatchlings of 2010. My female laid 12 eggs in total this season. I wasn't aware that they can lay so many clutches! One of the hatchlings has an interesting pattern again, similar to the "patternless" one I hatched in 2008...







Regards,

Christian

Very nice well done.

Do you have any of the details as in hatching times and time between clutches?

Nope! I have them for long yet they don't seem to breed.

Tell me about yours- it will probably be interesting for other people as well if you post such details :

-Did yours had a winter cooling period? Temps? Duration? Do you separate them for a while?

-Where did you find the eggs?

-Incubation temps and duration for these babies?

Thanks,

Hervé

- Yes I switch off the heating lamps during Dec/Jan, they stay at normal room temperature then. I do not separate them.

- Eggs are buried in the sand. I keep a not too high layer of sand so it's easier to find the eggs. Mine never piled up the sand as described in many articles.

- Temps/duration I wrote in the previous post.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the information on clutch dates glad you got such good numbers.

On the contrary i found one of my females dead this morning what a bummer.

I'm always impressed how big they are when they hatch.

This one hatched Friday/Saturday:



Cheers
Chris
