Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Greatest 48 hours
Well, yesterday I got 7 beautiful babies from Robin Struck (r2reptiles.com). I was very happy, no offence, but that is so belitted now.
Today I went to check the incubator, and to my amazement i see 2 pairs of little eyes staring at me! I wasn't expecting these for another week.
They are my first hatchlings ever and I am super excited. I got hissed at and everything! Oh man am I excited, I can't think, or breath, or remeber.
Who wants to breif me on hatchling care real quick? lol cant remember. Unfortunately I don't know when they hatched. The last time I can remember me checking the incubator was sunday afternoon, so they hatched monday or tuesday. I'll get pics up and running soon. Man I'm excited!!!
I got heat pads yesterday too, and my mealworm breeding project has the perfect sized mealworms for the new babies... i think. Its been a great two day, but unfortunately I'm going away for the weekend and leaving my parents in charge. I finally know the joy of being a parent.
Michael

Congratulations!!!
Hey, Michael... that's fantastic!!! I still remember the very first clutch I had hatch, and I was so ecstatic I cried! As a matter of fact, I still have one of them and she'll be 9 years old this August.
Just keep the babies on paper towel, give them a small hide and very small water 'bowl', keep them warm, and watch them grow! They should shed in a few days, so keep an eye on them for any adhered skin, and then they'll be ready to eat little 2-week old crix or x-small mealies. Be sure to take pictures!!!

CONGRATS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! keep them very similar like a wrote... like marcia said keep an eye out for stuck sheds, mist them like two or three times a week... wait til they shed and poop you usually dont see em shed but you will see a small "poop cork" then offer them about 3-4 mealies.. sometimes you dont know if they are eating just wait for the poop... i feed mine every other day but it all really depends on you and your geckos. keep them warm with lots of hide and just a soda bottle cap full of water or even a cleaned plastic milk cap lid and for a feeding bowl you can use a lid from a deli cup.. a shallow jar lid but something nice and low
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
