    Have you experienced this specifically with crested geckos? If so, did the earlier hatch dates result in smaller babies? What temperature were the crested eggs incubated at and what was the approximate number of days that the babies hatched at?

    Not cresteds but gargoyles...

    Hatchlings of all species incubated in our containers were all normal in size... Like I said earlier, they were all fully developed without egg yolks...

    Gargoyles were incubated at 79 to 80 degrees F. and they hatched in 52 days...

    I will be happy to answer any other questions on this topic...

    I am sure they were fully developed and whatnot, I was just curious about their actual size as I have noticed a big difference in size with cresteds that incubate for shorter periods of time than those that incubate longer. Since you are incubating fairly warm though, the temps could be lowered for a longer incubation if preferred. Anyhow, I will be interested to see what you will be introducing in Daytona. :)
