one of my baby viper gecko eggs hatched!! Its tiny!! I put it in a tupperware with paper towel, a tiny little house and a lego peice with water in it... He has a little peice of shell on him and looks like hes shedding.... He is alert and looks at me like the parents do.... I have to go buy little new crickets for him.. The eggs were layed on mothers day., and hatched today.... Its awesome... im so happy... i hope he makes it....

Try a bottle cap lid for a water dish

Congrats man!

A water bottle cap works great for water, you can even cut down the sides a bit so they can reach.

good luck with the little guys. they're great

im so happy.... he finished shedding. I need to go buy some f those small crickets today. Do the eggs from the same batch tend to hatch at close times?? cause the other hasnt yet,

thanks

My first clutch hatched about a week apart, Unfortunatly those were the one's that died. I figured it out to be my temps were too low.

The rest have hatched within a day, 2 max.

He rejected a cricket yesterday. I didnt expect him to eat that soon anyway. The other egg hasnt hatched yet. Im watching it carefully.

Thanks for the great advice,
Geoff
