[QUOTE="kormath, post: 75328, member: 4199"] use the lamp if you're wanting to breed them and for them to grow faster. They're a tropical species and the heat will help speed that up. Depending on the size you're looking at a few months to a year for them to mature and breed. See if there are any adults at the Repticon, then you can have them breed and let yours grow up. They seem to breed more if there's little ones in the enclosure with them, at least my lateralis do that. I'd get one or 2 egg cases every couple weeks or so with just juvies and adults in the colony. When i added pinheads i started see the egg casings all over. now i have a huge colony ;) might have to see if anyone local has lizards or pets that will eat them and give some away lol. [/QUOTE]
