Breeding projects?

definitely keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Glad to see your pairings are bringing you success, Pam. Might be interested in picking up a spider from you in the near future as well.

Just thought I would post some of my clutches this year. So far I have had redtails and Nigerian uromastyx and have beardies and leos in the incubator now.

These were the first to come, born on May 30th. I did not technically produce these because I bought the female gravid and had her for a couple of months before she popped. She was fat when we got the pair and never ate for us but kept getting bigger.

These were the next arrivals and I believe they were hatched around June 14th through the 16th.
This is the dad, Tut...

This is mom, Naya...

Another pic of a few of the babies...

Next should be leos. We don't have a ton of leos breeding size yet so we only have a few eggs at this time. You can see a few in the pic of the baby uros in the hatch box.
Then we should have the beardies. These kind of fell in our lap as we had a friend who bought a beardie gravid and did not know what to do with the eggs. We don't know what they will look like but we got 17 eggs and so far all are plump and healthy.

I hope this post isn't too long, I just have had alot going on and have never had a chance to post everything all at once until now. Good luck in every ones pairings and put up lots of pics!

Those guys are all soooo cute!

Awww, Rob, they are all so cute! Congrats!

I have two more babies out of the eggs. A male spider and another female normal. Still have two spiders and one normal hanging out in the eggs. I'll post more pics when they all come out.

Dagan: Yep, I do actually have a few hits for normals. Not many, though, and sometimes I have to keep them for quite a while before I sell them. But I don't ask pet shop prices for them, either. I plan to sell normal females at $40.00 each (my forum members get them for $35.00 each), and males for $30.00 (my forum members get them for $25.00 each).

The last of the babies came out! I wound up with a grand total of 0.3 normals and 2.2 spiders.

Third one out, spider male:


Fourth one out, female normal:


Fifth one out, female spider and possible holdback:


Sixth one out, spider male:


Seventh and last one out, normal female:

And boy does this last female really remind me of my het albino male . . . ! I almost wonder if my normal girl held back some sperm from her last breeding, but if she did, she retained it for two years!!!! She had last year off, but this baby looks nothing like her, and nothing like the spider male father, but she is almost a spitting image of my het albino male. For all intents and purposes though, she is considered a normal.

And a group shot of the whole clutch:

Congrats!! They look great!!

I wish mine would pip already!!

I love seeing the pics of the babies! I really do try to live vicariously through you all. Even the normals are exciting to me!

It kills me seeing so many other babies hatching out and I've still got stubborn eggs. lol

Hey, I love seen hatchling pics, but it'd be nice if you made a new thread. I am more likely to overlook photos when they are hidden in someone else's thread topic...lol.

I opened a new breeding projects thread in the lizard forum and moved a few threads so it's easier to locate and fawn over those babies. <3<3<3

Thanks much!

And not to worry, Sandy, your clutches should be pipping any day now! Can't wait to see baby pics . . . it's like I get to go through the anxiety all over again! LOL

Should I give them a deadline? Would threatening them with embroidery scissors get them going?

Last one out is a rotten egg! Oh...wait.
