god! I can't imagine having 44 baby beardies :shock:

 

[DNADragons]

It is serious work and expensive. I hope you saved up you money because you will be ordering 5-10,000 crickets a week.

My wife and I have taken as many steps as possible to prepare for these guys. Wifey is home all day so they will always have someone around to take proper care of them as hatchlings. This is our first set of clutches and we've spent the last 6 months talking about the project but I welcome experienced tips via private message.

 

[thegreybush]

They should hatch 7-8 weeks or so before the Seattle reptile expo.

 

[DNADragons]

Absolutely, it is a lot of fun!!

 

[DownriverBreeders]

Congrats to the big clutches and good luck selling the babys in the future to good caring customers!!!

wow that's a lot of eggs! :shock: I hope you have a lot of food.

I know right? Actually we've had a 4 day crisis here. With this snow/ice storm in Washington state we lost power for a couple of days so we've been trying to keep our house warm and the eggs warm. I told my wife she should sit on them like a chicken...powers back now though.

 

[agilitygirl]

Oh that must of been stressful trying to keep the eggs warm. haha I dont think that would be very comfortable.

They should hatch 7-8 weeks or so before the Seattle reptile expo.

Will we be seeing you at the expo?

 

[thegreybush]

I'm sure you will. I'm won't be able to make a decision on whether or not I will need to purchase a small vendor slot or not yet, but I'll definitely be there as a visitor again at the very least.

 

[TASTIGER]

did all the eggs survive the winter storm? if my family didnt have a generator we would have all frozen to death or died from cabin fever :lol:

 

[Moggy]
