No be carefull with your conclusions. You could also be right about the misting. Remember that the pair I have is wildcaught. They mated shortly after I purchased them and directly (two weeks) after I placed UV lighting. They most probably mated because: 1)I gave them a drier, cooler living conditions than where they originated from. (possibly)
and 2) UV lighting could also play a role in the general health of the animals. In Januari I used 9 hours sun and increased this gradually until summer at 12 hours light a day.
Iam by no means a expert!! I can only share my personal experience with this species!! The mating could also have been pure luck!! Now that the female has produced, Iam goingto feed her well and gradually increase humidity and then drop it suddenly next season.
However Iam always glad to share my experiences with anyone, helping in the succesfull breeding of this beautifull species!!
