[vadnappa]

top effort cliff. you have to be pretty happy to see that. how long did he incubate for?

 

[Varanidae]

thanks richardsc and vadnappa incubation was 117 deays at about 27.5 degrees
here is a photo of it out of the egg, this will give you an idea of the size they are when they hatch

 

[snakateur]

Congratulations what a cutie

 

[slacker]

Awesome! Only the one egg?

 

[Varanidae]

unfortunately only one good egg for this clutch, she had 7 slugs but this was her first season

 

[slacker]

That is unfortunate. Ah well, one is certainly better than none, particularly with such nice little critters!

Out of curiosity, are you selling the hatchling, or holding it back?

 

[tympanocryptis]

Nice one mate.

 

[Varanidae]

Defiantly a keeper, might sell some out of the next clutch, will just have to see how attached I get to them

 

[jeffspythons]

Yeah. Good work

 

[Reptile City]

Well done cliff!

27.5 degrees thats cool.

We just have 4 more of the Red barred ones hatch at 87 days at 31 degreess.

I thought that might be the case. Good luck with them
