rhampholeon spectrum (spectrum pygmy chameleon) eggs laid today!

[tryme]

My female rhampholeon spectrum laid her clutch of two eggs today!! Any precautions to take? What should I do to prepair for the newborn? (D.w i'm planning on keeping both and at most giving one away to my sisters bf who is also a lizard guy) Is it ok to go near her eggs? She seems to be sticking by them. How long will they take to hatch?

Do you not need to take them out to incubate them?

 

[tryme]

I don't think you do I was told they are fine in the enclosure but still..

Hi, I "know" you from the LF forum.If I wereyou Id take the eggs out- carefully and incubate them in vermiculite.I had some Brevs that laid without my knowledge in the vivarium, I only knew when I saw some tiny babies in the foilage, I dont know how long they had been there before I saw them as my vivs are heavily planted and my Brevs live in little groups.To be safe and protect the eggs from crickets I would remove them.
Love Tawny

i have incubated them at room temp. in vermiculite and had success. I used the same incubation process as I would a R. brevicaudatus.
