Hey everyone I've been gone for awhile(computer has been down) but I'm back with good news. I got my first hatchling today. The other egg in the clutch was infertile but I guess you have to take the good with the bad. I raised the parents from juvies so I'm pretty excited about it. Now I really cant wait for the other eggs to start hatching.
Wow are they ever small....

very nice. you raised the parents from juvies, about how many months did you have to wait for this baby from the time you got the parents?

He's so cute!

It must be just that much more awesome when you've raised up his parents yourself too...

Can I ask what you're using for an incubator (if anything?)

Thanks everyone
The dad is almost 2 and the mother is probably a year and a half.
I just incubated it at room temperature in vermiculite.

I have not been able to find vermiculite, would perlite work as well? how much moisture should be added?
