ok today i was home and right when i wanted to take my green anole out of it hiding spot it ran and dropped an egg it was yellow so it was bad but i want to know if repti moss is a good substrate for them to lay there eggs because its the first and im sure there will be more
its perfect for them its moist is comftarble but hey an incubator is wai better
yes that is where most reptiles in the wild will lay their eggs. in the moss its supposed to be a temperature that helps the eggs. its really hard to explain. but yes that is actually a great spot for eggs to be layed
potting soil is the best medium for laying as it is more stable for the eggs, they should then be transferred to vermiculite mixed with an equal amount of water (by weight) so it is damp but not wet, then placed in an incubator (it is easy to build your own) make sure you don't turn the eggs at all as they are moved otherwise they will die. Also make sure to heavily supplement the females food with calcium as egg production will dramatically effect her natural stores and try to feed her as much as she will eat to keep her weight up as she may well lay multiple clutches.
