hello sorry your having trouble findingh info
i hope this helps.
i breed them about 4-5 times in 96 through 98 when they were still really rare over here in canada too.

each animal was kept seperate in its own cage. i used 3' to 4'cages for larger females. aspen substrate and lots of hide boxes, some moist some dry. heat was by a heatpad.
other than cycling time, ambient day temps were 80 to 85 with hot spot of 88 90, at night all heat off and ambient was 75 - 78.
in novmenber i started cycling them and ntl were 67 - 72
dth was 80-82. the 88 degree heat pad was on from 8am till 5pm. this continued until about jan when i started to slowly increas the ntl and increase the hours the heatpad was on.
i usually started putting the male in the females cage in decemeber and would leave him in for several days then out for a few days then back in. i continue this until i see ovulation usually in around january through march. eggs were usually laid around march through april. and i usually got about 7 to 9 eggs. babies can be a pain to start eating.
good luck.
