Aww, 4 more baby carpets out today. This happens to be from two different clutches...

One clutch is CH, and the other is F3.

More eggs are sweating in both clutches :)

Early Merry Christmas. Were those little dolls the only thing on your list? I would be happy with them for my present, they are so cool.:cool:
 
Thanks everyone! These two clutches are hatching early...at 8 and 9 months. I would prefer they took longer, but everyone seems very healthy so far. :)
 
Beautiful!! Congrats on the new babies and also F3!! Your last thread had some very nice pictures and the ones for sale are flawless!

Having rather short life spans in the wild I would be curious to know how old you have been able to get them to live?

Is that including the diapause? How long were they on that?
 
I think we need a picture of one next to a penny to compare them! Wow they are small!!
 
I was thinking that...these are the smallest baby carpets I've ever hatched...the CH'd ones I mean, not the CB's. The CB's are much larger out of the egg than the CH'd...it always seems to be that way. I'll try to get some pics either tomorrow or Tues. next to a penny!

Forget diapause! Everything I wrote in the E-Zine article still applies to my husbandry except for diapause. There's definitely something to it, and others may have success with it, but I think there is no question that the best way to incubate lat eggs is 68-70F until they hatch-period. Whether it takes 8 months or 18 months, just let them hatch when they're ready. And yes, I've had them take 18 months to hatch! Just part of the fun. The mother of some of these babies took 13 or 14 months I believe.

WOW!!! That would drive me insane waiting for them to hatch.

For what it's worth, I think there are still a few of my F2 Furcifer lateralis majors kicking around. They will be 4 years old early in the new year.

Kevin your babies are wonderful. Send me some.

Cheers,
T
