Well Yesterday I found little eggs in my pygmy cage. There are three total..I didn't realize how small they would be it's like finding small white jelly beans! I am going to drive down to lllreptile tom and get a proper incubator (Since in my area they only sell chicken incubators) but for now I took them out and placed them in a small deli cup that my roaches had come in. I have them in moss and my question really is what temp should they be? I know that most info I have read says between 72-74 but can they go a little higher or lower? I have been doing my best to keep it between 72-72 until tom when I get an incubator.....

Congratulations! I've never seen pygmy eggs... but I've seen anole eggs, so I know what you mean about tiny eggs!

I have no idea how to hatch eggs, but I know a lot of people on here know what they're doing (Julirs should be a lot of help) so I'll just wish you luck! Hopefully in a few months you'll hear the pitter patter of baby pygmy feet ;)
 
sorry I don't have any answers for you, but I'm interested in what people say because I'm thinking of breeding the pair of pygmies that I just ordered today. Do you really have to use an incubator?

Well thanks...I went down to lllreptile today and was going to get the incubator set that they had advertised on their site but they didn't have any of them:(! I was kinda bummed out since their site said they would have them yesterday(17th). They had one but it was rather on the expensive side ($70 or $80). So anyways I still have my eggs in a deli cup and their temp ranges between 70 and 76. I tried to ask the folks at lllreptile what temp should they range and the response I got was in the 70's So I hope that is what it really needs to be. I hope this batch makes it but if not I am going to save a bit and get the set when lllreptile gets them in.
 
Aww! So tiny! Can't imagine how small those babies are gonna be! My Lily laid me a clutch of Easter eggs too! :D

Yeah When I went down to lllreptile today I saw how big some of those chams are my two are tiny compared to them! They had some that were the size of my male and female together!
