Hi mate,I'm not an expert but this what worked for me.
I always keep my male and female in seperate vivs and introduce them no and again for a little while.You will see if she is ready to breed because her colours will change completely.the male can stay in with her for a few days and she will tell you when she wants him gone.(she will become nasty to him and sometimes run away)
After there little bit of fun the female should lay her eggs in around 30 - 40 days after,get a large dig tub in with her ASAP (put in it a damp mixture of soil and sand)
She will lay her eggs usually in the night and then they can be taken out and put in tubs,(some poeple us vermiculte or perlite but i have had best results with jungle bedding.)
I incubator can be set from 75 - 80 degs and should take around 216 days (estimate) mine were at 79.5 and only took 190 days.
Hope this helps you mate but i will prob be picked up on a few things that i have done wrong but it has worked for me and i have 18 health babies and 28 more in eggs in the cooker.

It's a good idea to know the name of a species before deciding to do something as advanced as breeding - it is "Yemen".

well i incubate my clutches at 80-82 and they hatch at 5-6 months. I put the male and female together to mate. once they have mated i seperate them and try again the next day. If she wants it again then she will let him do his stuff when she gets nasty and has gravid colours then stop doing this. As someone said make sure u have a bucket of moist sand of 12 inches at least. Im only 12 and have had great success with this
