Srry for my poor English, I'm from holand :P

Are they soft shelled eggs like leopard geckos? If so it should be okay about the egg dropping and turning. As long as it doesn't get moved any more. Next time you may want to mark your eggs with a marker before you move them from your terrarium. Just take a black marker and put a line, dot, X or what ever you like onto the top of the egg. That way you always know which way is up:D

Oke thanx

I hope that the eggs will hatch

I adore cyrtodactylus species. Did you know there are over 60 different species? Truly amazing. They are very similar to leos, but not actually a type of leopard gecko. Their care is similar, as are their habits, but otherwise they are quite different. Coleonyx are hard to find in Canada, I've been looking forever. I have to resort to buying them from the States. lol Good luck with the eggs, let us know how it turns out:D

cat geckos Coleonyx mitratus are magnifficent, very interesting animals! They are more slender and elegant than leos with elongated heads and are bigger than leos, with habits like those of a cat! :)...
Do you have a photo camera? Well, let us see some pics of the parents.

reptilesalonica, do you like cyrtodactylus too? They are hard to find just like coleonyx. In Canada anyways!:D

Julie

[reptilesalonica]

Oh, yes of course! All Cyrtodactilus are colorful slender and beaytiful.
C.peguensis, C.baluensis, C.matsuii, C.consobrinus and the spectacular C.irianjayaensis.
Though my big love is Goniurosaurus luii, i am totaly in love with these eyelids!!! :D

[Tim and Julie B]

Wow, yes Goniurosaurus! I may get the chance to buy some of these at the next reptile show! G. araneus. So beautiful. Eyelid geckos are very fascinating. So many colors and patterns. I love Cyrtodactylus peguensis and pulchellus. Those are the ones that I may get from the US probably in December or January. There are so many to choose from. So many, too little time!:D

Hey

Reptilesalonica, COloenyx mitratus is smaller than a leopardgecko. And I have a problem with housing. I can't find where they exacly live. How does his habitat look like.

I Have them now on sand with stones and a plastic plant . And I spray water every day. What must I change.

How can I post a picture of my gecko?

[Katatonic]

Mitratus require a semi-tropical enclosure. Heat pad under 1/4 of the enclosure, coconut fibre as a bedding, plain paper towel, cypress mulch and sphagnum moss are all choice substrates. Be sure to include a moist egg chamber/hide box as they appreciate it more than anything. Mist the enclosure atleast once a day, if not twice, and keep at a temperature of around 84 F.
Hope it helped.
