Autumn: Harvest remaining larvae. Colony activity decreases with shorter days.
Hornworms
Autumn: Maintain cultures at room temperature. Continue commercial diet only.
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

Incubation
Temperature, humidity, and timeline guidance for incubating Shield-nosed Snake eggs.
80–88°F (27–31°C)
65–80%
45–75 days
Incubate eggs in moistened vermiculite (1:1 by weight with water). Keep sealed with weekly air exchange. Do not rotate eggs — maintain original orientation throughout incubation.
Some rocky-habitat species have temperature-dependent sex determination. Keep a stable incubator temperature for predictable results. Avoid temps above 90°F which can be lethal to embryos.
Hatchling & Baby Care
House hatchlings in 10–20 gal enclosures with paper towel or excavator clay substrate. Provide rock crevices and small caves for security, a basking platform, and a shallow water dish.
Basking surface 95–100°F, warm ambient 85–90°F, cool side 75–80°F
Feed pinhead crickets or small dubia roaches daily. Prey size should match the space between the hatchling's eyes. Dust with calcium + D3 every feeding and a multivitamin once weekly.
Rocky-habitat hatchlings benefit from securely stacked small rocks for hiding and thermoregulation. Ensure no loose stones can shift and trap the baby. Provide a humid hide for shedding support.
