Northern Fence? Eggs- Assistance Please!

xxxanity Jul 12, 2008 08:02 PM

Okay, I live in southern Ohio and while my little brother and stepdad were tearing apart an old wooden cart on our property they found several lizards, most of which I'm guessing were skinks, as well as one they hadn't seen around before. Based on the description of "spiny" I've determined that it's probably a fence, but still haven't seen her so I can't say for sure. Sceloporus undulatus hyacinthinus is what's native around here.

ANYWAY, they kept her for me to look at, and apparently she laid some eggs. I've given instructions to keep them nice and moist until I get there in a day, but have no idea what temperature they're going to need. I'm guessing upper 70'S?

Any guidance would be great.

Northern Fence Lizards are native to your area. Incubate them at about 80-82F.
