🍂Afghan Leopard Gecko
Autumn: Maintain feeding to build tail fat reserves ahead of winter; 2–3 times per week.
Hornworms
Autumn: Maintain cultures at room temperature. Continue commercial diet only.
Mealworms & Superworms
Autumn: Continue regular feeding. Monitor for pupation and separate beetles from larvae.
Henkel's Leaf-tailed Gecko
Spring: Increase feeding as temperatures warm; offer appropriately sized insects 3–4 times per week, dusted with calcium.
Sorah Leaf-tailed Gecko
Spring: Increase feeding as humidity rises; offer small insects 3–4 times per week with calcium dusting.

Incubation
Temperature, humidity, and timeline guidance for incubating Stinkpot Turtle eggs.
78–86°F (26–30°C)
80–95%
55–90 days
Incubate eggs in damp sphagnum moss or vermiculite. Semi-aquatic eggs require high humidity but should not be submerged. For turtle/tortoise eggs, do not rotate — mark the top with a pencil to maintain orientation.
Turtle and tortoise eggs are often temperature-sex dependent: lower temps (~78°F) produce males, higher temps (~86°F+) produce females. Keep incubation medium moist but not waterlogged.
Hatchling & Baby Care
For aquatic hatchlings, provide shallow water (deeper than the shell is long) with an easy-exit dry dock. For semi-aquatic species, use a divided land/water setup. Include a basking platform and UVB.
Basking surface 88–95°F, water 78–82°F, ambient 80–85°F
Feed small insects (bloodworms, pinhead crickets), tiny fish, or aquatic turtle pellets daily. For omnivores, supplement with duckweed or small greens. Dust with calcium + D3 regularly.
Water quality is critical for aquatic hatchlings — use a gentle filter or do frequent partial water changes. Provide UVB from day one for proper shell development. Monitor for shell pyramiding and adjust diet/protein accordingly.
