I recently took in some leopard geckos about 5 days ago. I am an animal lover of all types. Anyways, I woke up this morning and found an egg in the moist hide box made of moss.I wanted a little advice on the best way to hatch the baby, as far successful.Can I go without an incubator and use a another type hide box on a heating pad, keeping it humid and around 85degrees? Thanks from the geckos.

Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

That would be a home made incubator. That would work if you can keep the temp and humidity correct.

The link below shows how to prepare the incubation container. I use this method and have a 100% hatch rate with fertile eggs.

This link will show you how to make a homemade incubator. You can incubate at 85 degrees and get a mix of both sexes. Good luck!
