Thanks, Chris.
Very interesting information. It seems that oxycephala and janseni have very long incubation terms in the wild, up to 125/130 days. Maybe the shorter periods of 90+ days are causing the embryos to develop too quickly before the eggs soften up. Very nice observation.
Schulz ('96) said that humidity must be kept very high also to keep eggs from drying out in these species. Hope everyone has good fortune with them in the future.
Looking forward to your later post or your friend's.
TC
