Sean, Most of my eggs hatch after more than 70 days of incubation, so if you are at 55 days and the eggs still appear healthy (not yellow or dessicated) I think they will be all right. Even if the eggs don't look so good I would still let them incubate. I have had eggs that looked really nasty and I had given up on them only to be surprised by a healthy hatchling. -Derek

At 55 days, I wouldn't be looking for anything yet. At about 65 days, you can start looking for them to have moisture on them. You'll notice that they'll sometimes start to "sweat" about a day or two before they hatch. Once the baby gecko pips the egg, I prefer to cut the egg wide open for them and then let them emerge on their own.
