How many eggs do your female Chahoua lay each season? Does that differ from season to season for an individually gecko (e.g., if they have a big season of 8 - 10 eggs, is the subsequent season less)?

Great topic @MichaelMDG! For me, my hobbies/interests, in addition to geckos/reptiles of course, include: - Cars (generally high end, European automobiles) - Real Estate investing, designing, renovating, etc. - Watch collecting - Dogs, who are also close members of our family!

Here is a homemade recipe I offer often: 4 packets of organic Just Mangos baby food 4 tablespoons of 100% Pure Cricket Powder 6 tablespoons of organic, grass fed whey protein 2 tablespoons of Pangea Gecko Diet 4 heaping tablespoons of Miner-All Indoor Formula vitamins Pinch of organic...

When I experemented with Dubia Roaches, I found that hatchling/young juvenile Chahoua ate them readily but adults were far less interested.

Miner-All Indoor Formula is used in my custom fruit-based blend of gecko food. I sometimes dust my crickets with it too.

First hatchlings of the season from my most exciting pair emerged a week ago - pics coming soon! :)

I have briefly tried lay boxes in several enclosures with no success (albeit, again, very small sample size). My geckos generally lay in relatively predictable places (i.e., under cork hollows or in relatively tight cavities created by cork flats). I keep track of where females lay eggs and...

I keep my Chahoua in naturalistic terrariums and did have one situation where I was surprised to find a new baby hatchling hanging out on the door as I went to enter the enclosure to mist! I remove every egg I can find from the enclosure because I feel I can control the environment better...

I have been keeping all my pairs in 18" x 18" x 24" Exoterras. I have never tried a trio, but have been curious as well as I know some people have had success (and others haven't, but Chahoua aren't known to be the most reliable producers, either...)

I generally leave the bad egg attached to the good egg, although I don't see any reason not remove it from the good egg as long as your careful not to jostle/disturb the good egg too much.

Indeed!

Challenge accepted. I am ready to be the first White Collar Kingpin!

I have gone from not cutting at all, to cutting very (too) often, to trying my hardest not to cut any (many) eggs. Reasons why I initially shifted from not cutting to cutting often? i. I witnessed several pip and die events (and heard about many more from other breeders) and wanted to avoid...

This pairing right here! 3 clutches incubating so far....hoping for the best!

Controversial topic indeed! I like white geckos, like this one I produced in 2018. Believe it or not, the white has actually spread on this animal since it was photographed has she approaches one (1) year of age now.

Another beauty I produced in 2018!

One of my nicer productions from 2018!

I am trying to feed a variety of diets, but generally offer a home made diet (similar to the one Michael posted years ago with some variation) as well as a mixture of Pangea flavors. Occassionally I'll rotate in some Black Panther, Repashy Classic, or Repashy Seasonal. On a related side note...

Initially I incubated my eggs in a hovabator ~75 degrees, however, became concerned about the machine's reliability and switched to incubating them at room temperature at the top of one of my shelves. I suspect the temperature usually ranges from 74 - 76 degrees and my geckos hatch generally...

Should be fun (and informative)!
