C. turneri/P. turneri

[Kevin McRae]

I guess the new correct name would be Chondrodactylus turneri nor Pachydactylus turneri. I ordered a trio of these guys, and would appreciate any advice you guys have.

I am using a 25 gallon tall enclosure for them, sand substrate, a few branches and logs. 90 F basking area, around 80 in the rest of the enclosure.

I'm getting a bit ahead of myself but I know they aren't gluers, but they do bury their eggs correct? I have saw a few pics of their eggs, all on a flat surface of sand. Or are they just dug up? Do the eggs do well with artificial incubation? If so what are good incubating temperatures/humidity ranges and incubation mediums?

Thanks. Any pics of the geckos or their enclosures would be great!

Kevin, they breed easily and frequently. The babies are extremely hardy and eat well.

They bury their eggs and the eggs are not glued. Incubate dry at ~84F for 55 days. You don't need to incubate them if you dont want. Stick them in a warm cupboard and they will still hatch. I kept mine on sand.

I wrote a care sheet that should be up on geckworld soon. I can post enclosure pics and animal pics later.
