One of my females finally laid her first egg. This is my first uroplatus egg, and I am dreadfuly excited. Wish me luck, and feel free to shower me with advice.

Fantastic Jared, it is so very eggciting when ya get the first as well as every one after, LOL Sure have my best wishes that all goes well.

Just stay patient, I had a few last year that I kept a bit cool about 68 - 72 and it took sooooooo long, and only to find they had died in there, a BUMMMER.

Keep us updated.

Who laid this egg? We have hatched a few different Uroplatus, we may be a little help.

Congratulations Jared! You've made it past the first step. Now you have to endure the looooong wait, haha. It is well worth it though. What kind of Uroplatus egg is it?

It's a U. henkeli. I have it incubating on a small piece of foam in a ice tray which sits on top of a bed of moist vermiculite in a Rubbermaid shoebox. This is Kelly Sharp's incubation procedure, and she has had very good luck with it, so I am basically just copying it.
