Does anyone know at which temperature Chinese Cave Gecko eggs should be incubated? How long does it take for them to hatch?

My female CCG laid eggs yesterday. Hoping to get info ASAP.

I incubated mine at room temperature (around mid to high 70's) and it took on average between 80 and 85 days for them all. Consequently they all came out female, there has been some discussion on temperature based sex in gonis so I'm going to try incubating some in the ol trusty hovabator in the 80's and see how that affects incubation time and sex. Good luck with your eggs and hope to see pics here in a few months :)

Thanks for the information. I also have 2 luii males...am looking for females or hatchlings. Do you have any available or do you know a supplier? Thanks for your help.

They may move this to the classifieds, but if not I don't have any luii (looking for more females myself). They don't seem to show up on the imports any more, but once in a while you'll see some from private breeders, though these are usually juveniles. Try herp expos, keep checking kingsnake, and place WTB ads on the forums and maybe something will turn up.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info. Sorry, didn't mean to break any rules. Will check other sources...once saw a group of luii at rock bottom prices at Herp Show here in Pomona, CA years ago.
