Ebanaui were my first Uroplatus I purchased and bred. They are totally easy to incubate. I use perlite and papertowels as my incubating medium. I take a deli cup cut some holes in it that are 1/8 inch in diameter, i normally put about 10 holes per container. I wet the perlite until it feels slightly moist to touch (when squeezed no water drips out of it) and then spray the paper towel lightly with water. I place the eggs in the medium until they are 2/3 of the way covered and then lay the paper towel over the top of the eggs. I periodically check the humidty with a lab grad hygrometer to make sure its about 70% humidity. the wait time is about 10-12 weeks. I've had some go 125 days but that rare.
good luck
