Our beardie, Tang, was breed for the first time this year. Her first clutch gave us 18 nice egg looking eggs. 14 ended up hatching and all the babies are great.
Every other clutch she has had the eggs look funny. They aren't egg shaped, they are more cylindrical and some are yellowish. Why? Is really the first clutch usually the only viable one? She would put her in with her mate again?
Second question...
Everything says don't sell the babies until they are "6 weeks or 6 inches". Why??? We will keep ours longer just to see what kind of color develops and to be able to hopefully sex them more accurately. We've just wondered why this is the standard.
Thanks a bunch and looks like this is going to be a fun forum!
