I have hatched them finally. I couldn't find any info about incubation, so I just made a guess.

I did provide them with a lay box and both my females used it. I never saw the breeding. There was plenty of chirping, barking, and what sounded like growling. And ripped skin on the females that heals pretty quickly. I put them on damp vermiculite, which I never moistened again during all of incubation. I put them in the incubator with my bearded dragon eggs, set at 82. I moved a couple weeks after they were laid, so there were a few days and a road trip when they were allowed to cool considerably. Once my dragons finished hatching, I took the halmahera eggs out of the incubator and put them on a shelf in my room, which maintained temps of 78-79. As for time frame, they were laid around Oct 13-14 and hatched Dec 22-23. One of them didn't survive after hatching. The other seems to be doing well. Never see it eat, but have noticed the CGD starting to have little spots missing in the morning. I do mist the baby everyday to make sure he/she drinks.
