    Removing eggs from the lay box

    normally when a female is pregnant she puts on a lot of weight. once she lays her eggs you will see that she is very skinny. it will be very obvious (at least to me) that the female has laid her eggs. Then once you know she has laid them, yes, you carefully dig through the lay box and normally...

    Hatchlings not eating? normal?

    Feeding regular mealworms is not recommended as a feeder to babies or any dragon as a staple. However "mini" mealworms which are different than normal mealworms are fine as a feeder (not a staple) for baby dragons. Crickets are the best feeder/staple for babies because you can gut load them and...

    Waiting game

    I do not know why you would have to check them more than once a week if that. As long as you have water in the incubator for the humidity then you should have no reason to really check on them. They arent going to run away lol But what type of incubator do you have? Because most of the...

    Hatchlings not eating? normal?

    Are you making sure the crickets are not too large? If they are too big then they will do nothing but frighten the babies and they will run from them. Also you dont want to dump a ton of them in the cage at once. You want to throw a few in and all you really need is for one baby to start eating...

    Egg Question For the Reputable Breeders

    Well if you are a responsible breeder you are only going to put a male and female together because you 'want' her to get pregnant, which would mean you want to 'keep' the eggs. Yes one breeding can produce multiple clutches and many many eggs. I guess if you do not have the means to take care of...

    Review: Hornworms from Great Lake Hornworm

    http://www.greatlakeshornworm.com are great. I order from them all the time. Not just hornworms but they have GREAT prices on superworms, especially if buying in bulk. I have never had an issue with DOA's, and they ship your feeders out super fast. I highly recommend them.

    best online cricket supplier

    I used to order from Ghanns, and never ever had a problem with them. Very healthy crickets and great prices. However I have found (what I think) is a better supplier. coldbloods.com is a great place to get your crickets. super low prices and never had 1 DOA. Very nice overcount and super...

    Zoo Med Reptibator Incubator Review

    I as well gave this incubator a chance. I purchased one months ago and have used it twice for two clutches of eggs. Although I have had the same hatch rate as when using my hovabators, this incubator just is not worth the money. The plastic lid that just basically sits on top is a terrible...

    Selling babies, advertising, etc

    Well, sometimes you have to actually spend money to make money. The market is so saturated with dragons, its really hard to sell a lot right now. Your best bet is to sell wholesale lots to your local petstores, set up shop at some reptile expos or put up some ads on the free reptile forums (ie...

    Ghann's Cricket Shortage - all SIZES not available

    Yeah that whole "all SIZES not available" is a bit misleading. They still have crickets for sale, but I believe the largest they have now is only 1/2". They were trying to say they still have crickets forsale, but not in larger sizes, if that makes sense.

    Will my eggs ever hatch?

    They will hatch when they are ready. The long wait is probably because of the temps you are incubating at. 82-83 a tad bit lower than what most people incubate at. Between 84-86 seems to be the norm. I incubate with those temps and hatch at 60-63 days consistently. You have waited this long, a...
