Hey all,
I have been doing tons of research into incubation of some of the rarer species of chameleons and have a questions for those of you that have incubated some of the species from Eastern Madagascar. After digging through the forums, I am seeing that a lot of people provide night and day gradients within your incubation container. My questing is this; What is the average depth that eggs are deposited into the ground, a foot? 9 inches? Further more does the soil temp at that depth really fluctuate that much?
I have hatched dozens of eggs from species like Panthers, Veilds, C. africanus and some Montium and have never provided a day/night gradient, but would be interested to learn how many of you do provide this.
Thanks guys!
