[8] The largest movements occur when the female deposit their eggs within a different microhabitat. [8] Young also disperse when finding vacant and suitable microhabitats. [8]
Eggs hatch within 45–80 days within a temperature range of 27–30 °C and optimal humidity of 70–80%. Three to five days after the hatchlings emerge from the eggs, the juvenile geckos can begin feeding. Subsequent matings can be observed as soon as one hour after the deposition of the clutch occurs.
