Hi bensen,Some captive pairs exhibit low fecundity.
Hi bensen,
In what context are you referring to low fecundity? As in only one clutch/season, more often one egg than two, not breeding every season, some/all of the above?
Cheers
Interesting thread
none of the above! the scenarios you present would soon see the extinction of a species. poor fertility and hatch rates. i suspect that it is a combination of environmental factors, because some animals are reliably productive with 100% (or close to it) hatch rate, whereas most eggs in others' collections fail to hatch. i reiterate, they are to be kept differently to any other aussie gecko species.
the eggs need to be kept very humid in order for the shell to be able to tear at hatching.prior to hatching the baby becomes very energetic and the egg can be seen moving uo to three days before release and in some circumstances can even flip the egg around in the medium.
bensen, would you compare the incubation requirements as similar to those of Leaf-tailed Geckos?
