Did you ask the seller if previous clutches were viable? Maybe it's a slugger so it was sold.....just a thought.
Was your other female bred by the firefly. I hope it lays a good clutch.

I only have one female that I have bred multiple years, but she always lays viable eggs, and she has laid in 2011-2013 consecutively, and 2008-2009 consecutively with no problems.

I guess I should have asked that when I purchased her. Was only told she was proven and just assumed she laid good eggs. I have sent the seller an email to see if he either kept her records or would remember what kind of a clutch she had. I'll be sure to ask those kind of questions up front the next time. Thanks!

That's good to hear. I would like to try with her again next year if I can get her back up to weight. I have read somewhere that if they are bred multiple years in a row they can sometime be more likely to have slugs.

Is this true? I always thought you just keep normal temps of high 80s or low 90s for a hot spot, and cool side of 80 or so

I kept her at the regular 87-90 hot spot and 77 to 80 cool side. I never really change the temps at all. I didn't know it was necessary honestly. I hope that isn't what caused the problem...
