I've been focused on keeping and breeding other reptiles the last few years and was pleasantly surprised with a bunch of new baby Nosy Mitsios this evening.
I've had 3 clutches stashed in an incubator that I sort of gave up on. I've never been real strict with incubating my Chameleon eggs and they have usually just been in a closet or passive room temp incubator and go from 8-12 months before hatching. Well these containers have been moved around the house several times as we have been remodeling and have kind of become an afterthought.
I did toss them in an actual incubator around December because they got moved into the garage and it got too cold.
At this point I have sold all of my Chameleons and have just been working with Dwarf Australian Monitors and Tree Monitors. I rarely even looked into the small incubator and sort of forgot about it. On a whim tonight I got a feeling I should go take a peek in the incubator. Its been at least 2 weeks since I checked so timing was perfect. 3 containers with fresh babies!
Its been at least 15 months since these have been incubating. Most of my Mitsio clutches have gone around a year before hatching but these were a surprise!
I lost count after 45 and looks like another 10 or so could hatch in the next few days
Never give up on those eggs!
15K crickets ordered and some baby tubs hastily assembled tonight.
I missed having Chameleon babies!
