Many thanks, Johannes, for sharing your progress with Eublepharis hardwickii on this thread since 2018!

Is there some chance you could welcome in your 2021 eggs with a brand new incubator?

Well, I don’t know about a brand new incubator. But I found another of my old incubators that seems to keep the temperature better without overheating.
It depends as well on how long I will hold on to this years’ babies. As you know I prefer to keep them a little longer to document their development. So I might just wait until 2022 until I incubate some eggs again. We’ll see.

Thank you for spicing up Geckos Unlimited with your nice crisp Eublepharis hardwickii offspring photos, Johannes!!! I'm glad you located an older incubator that will work next time you breed these guys. Time is precious. Yours is too.

I love keeping my hatchlings a while too, before letting them go.

I've been noticing more pics on facebook, Johannes.

Have you a care sheet link to share now or a published article?

Sorry for the delay. But I think it makes more sense to make a monthly update post to avoid multiple posts with just one photo.

This months’ updates:

HW-003 at 3 months of age:

I had the honor to write an article about Eublepharis hardwickii for the November issue of the Herpetoculture Magazine. They even made it their cover article :yahoo:
It probably does not contain much new info for the loyal readers of this thread.
It's more like a first introduction of this species and should not be mistaken for a full care sheet.
You can read it for free and download the pdf here:

The two younger girls (HW-005 & HW-006) already moved to a new home. So there will be no more updates of the two sisters, sorry.

Thanks so much, Johannes, for reliably updating your Eublepharis hardwickii photos every month. Have you decided to incubate additional eggs this year?
