Have you ever gone to the pet store bought a couple dozen crickets, only to wake up the next morning to find half dozen or so dead?

Breeding season for most geckos is in full swing and gecko forums are full of anxious questions about eggs and incubation: Is my moldy/dented/shriveled/green and gooey egg OK?

Our friends over at Incubators.org have donated two Reptipro incubators for two lucky Gecko Time readers.
We asked our readers to send us a photo, drawing or written description of any type of gecko that you have hatched or hope to hatch from their incubator. This can be an actual morph of a gecko or a rendering of your fantasy gecko (for example, a solid black leopard gecko with red eyes). Photoshopped pictures are welcome, but please indicate whether this is an actual gecko or a photoshopped submission.
