all look great, how many days did it take for them to hatch and at what temp?
thanks

First off thanks for the comments!! They both hatched on the 71st day, my last clutch hatched on the 73rd day, and my first clutch hatched on the 65th day. The temps are about 67-72 at night, and 73-77 during the day. I always incubate at room temperature. Since I have switched from coconut husk to perlite I have noticed that the hatching takes a longer amount of time than it did previously. The eggs also seem to grow faster in perlite. Might just be a coincidence though.

Didn't you answer the question you just asked a couple of threads down when someone else asked how long and at what temps??

i was just curious as to what times it was taking other people.
i've got some at 84 days and it's buggin me!

kidcrazee82 Mar 18, 2005 10:00 PM

I gotcha. Patience is key!! Once I stop checking on the eggs, they hatch. The last clutch I was just looking in on my male to see what he was doing, the eggs are in his cage, and I noticed movement and was like oh...a baby!
