I'm the guy who did the extensive research on much of the data on the kicktheghose site, collecting anecdotes and published papers from collectors all over the world. A lot of work but I'm glad that someone has already found it some use. Please note that the site is not mine, although I am mentioned.
Basically, the eggs laid by gravid imports are extremely easy to incubate and hatch. They do fine at mid 80's and standard substrate moisture. But something seems to happen after females have been in captivity for a while and the eggs suddenly seem to be much more difficult to hatch. So it does not only apply to captive bred and born specimens.
Fascinating group of snakes, that's for sure. ----- Current snakes:
0.0.1 Gonyosoma oxycephala - Java locale (green)
1.2 Gonyosoma oxycephala - Jave local (green)
2.2 Gonyosoma janseni - Seleyar locale (all black)
1.2 Gonyosoma janseni - Celebes locale (Black & Tan)
