We've had a pair of these guys at the store I work at for nearly a year. A few weeks ago I found eggs while cleaning out the terrarium. Store policy is to throw them out, but they looked like they were well on their way, so home they went with me. There were 4 eggs in total. After a couple weeks at room temperature, one of the eggs hatched! Unfortunately, the baby had died before completely emerging (I found it dead).


ABOVE: The dead one..

About a week later, the second eggs went moldy. Two weeks later (today), I found the remaining two eggs shrivelled up, and 2 little guys just over an inch long burried in the substrate in the deli cup!





They are absolutely adorable. My question is - what species are they (latin name)? I cannot find ANY information on the anywhere. I now have the parents, and have set up the terrarium in the same manner in which they have been living for the past year.

Anyone have any ideas? the parents look almost identitical to the little ones. I can try and take pics of them if the baby pictures won't do.

Thanks,
Cory
