Those pictures are so cool! Did you lose many? Or did you have a fairly successful litter?

I got some Rhadodes some monthe ago, I keep all of them separatly on grip/sand/peat mix, either dry. The temperature at day about 35°C (common bulb lamp 25W) At night about 20-24°. Two females laid eggs, the youngs are hatched after 3weeks, the larvae moulted after 2-3 weeks, (only few moulted bad) After next 3-4weeks they moulted second time (about 10% moulted bad, and 10% died 1-2 days after the moult) this was and of Juni...
They feed good on micro crickets, and looks very pretty....:)

Hi,
I was just wondering if the females burrowed at all? Also, did she lay the eggs above ground? Was there any care for the eggs after she layed them?
Thanks in advance!!
Jon

What species is this? I cant believe somebody was actually able to captive raise these! Are there any pics of the mother?
