Copulation was about 3 weeks ago, and now this.

13 good eggs, a few less than last time, but who's complaining?

I killed one by accident, and one was deflated. The tegus loved them. :)

An older pic of the parents, I'll have to get some new ones up.

The tegus are also awake, and eating everything. What a day! :mrgreen:

For 2 of them, straight perlite. For the other, a vermic/perlite mix.

Lol, hey Mike, I think I'm gonna probably end up trading you that large male from the pet store for yours after all; I really think you would have better luck breeding. Also, maybe if you could manage to keep the male and female separate, and only put them together when you desire them to breed, you might have better luck!

My mom just ADORES your male....oh and for anybody who was wondering, I am currently babysitting Mike's male beardie so his female can get some space to recuperate after laying her eggs.
His male is a sweetie, but just isn't good at mating :p
He only actually copulates with the female like 1 out of every 75 times he tries XD Also, he is alot smaller than the female.
I might buy a larger male beardie from our local family-owned pet shop at an exorbitant price (I feel bad for the poor thing; he doesn't even have proper lighting) and trade Mike the large beardie for Mike's male.
