ABout right, I generally run a yard sprinkler on mine 3 times a day when it's REALLY hot like it has been all week, generally for about 10 minutes a day at midday, 10 minutes around 5 pm (the hottest part of the day here) then again at around 7:30 pm, and they do fine... I generally bring the veileds inside to lay however in a sand filled garbage can, I had one lay this morning actually, and 49 more perfect eggs laid over the weekend as well. The most important aspect of veiled breeding is keeping a VERY close eye on gravid females in my opinion, you really have to watch them closely and observe their habits in order to assess when the female is ready to lay. Generally, the best marker is observing the female hanging out around the floor of her outdoor enclosure, but the best marker is actually seeing the eggs in the belly of the veiled itself, when it comes time for her to lay you can actually feel and see the well formed eggs in the belly of the female, at which point she's within a day or two of laying. Some of my females came off of food a day or two before laying, but I've had other females that ate right up until they laid. -Eric Lago *MS Reptilian Hobbyists*
