Eggs hatching!

Always so exciting!

'Tis the season!

Looks like you got your vermiculite at Home Depot too.

Will you weigh your babies and share their weight with us? After rinsing, but before soaking or eating? I'm trying to get a good average weight for sulcata hatchlings from other breeders.

haha ya I can't seem to keep myself out of Home Depot long!

Yes Id be happy to get weights. Any thing I can do to help better our understanding of these amazing animals is high on my priority list! There are more eggs to come so I should be able to get you lots of data.

Adorable, congrats!!

Nice!! Congratulations

Coming out of the incubator

Omg sooo cute!! The only part of breeding reptiles I miss is pipping and hatching. My hats off to anyone putting in all the real work after. 9 years I enjoyed every moment but once I went back to work full time no way sadly. Retirement though I am happily awaiting!!
