When the first little nose peeks out of the shell, the excitement in our home is contagious...
Our only batch of bearded dragons for the year started hatching on August 11. We really didn't expect any babies this year as our dragons didn't mate. An interesting anatomic fact about bearded dragons is that they can mate once and lay fertile eggs for years afterwards. Let's just say they have an amazing storage capacity! :) I'm sure some ladies will agree with me that this would be not a good design for people! As of this writing, we have five adorable little babies, one nose sticking out of an egg, and eight eggs left to go. We also brought back a juvenile dragon that we sold to a friend last year (she's moving), so we're expecting 1,000 crickets to arrive at the "zoo" today!
Our present inventory: 10 bearded dragons (not including eggs), 1 Columbian tegu, 4 snakes, 1 turtle, 2 White's tree frogs, 1 tarantula, 1 scorpion, 1 betta, 1 hermit crab, 2 cats, 1 dog (sing with me...and a partridge in a pear tree).
