Pygmy Eggs!

[chameleoman]

My female brev laid for 4 eggs for me this morning! They all look plump, white and fertile to me

Good luck I'm so happy to see all the pygmy love lately.

That's awesome, how are you going to hatch them. Do you leave them like that or get a incubator cuz I'm interested in doing the same thing. Hope you have a success in hatching them

 

[chameleoman]

i have to get some vermiculite tomorrow, im just gonna incubate them in my closet because my closet temps are around 70-79

 

[qdude46]

What is vermiculite and what does it do?

 

[JimO]

That is great. Is this a female from the recent import or one that you had already?

recent import


Quick question form the pros, i didnt have any vermiculite and have them in a container with plantation soil for vivariums by exo terra. Should i leave them in that medium or switch as soon as i get the vermiculite?

 

[chameleoman]

What is vermiculite and what does it do?

Common!!!! you gotta know all this if you're gonna go and get some! Its a medium that tons of people use to incubate their eggs in people also use perlite or hatch rite

 

[qdude46]

Where do you get it because after months of research I never came across that

[Jamall]

Lowes.......

 

[qdude46]

I meant the Vermiculite sorry for not being so clear on that

 

[chameleoman]

Like Jamall said lowes or home depot Im getting mine at a reptile store though when are you gonna get yours qdude?

 

[qdude46]

My mom can't take me until Friday sadly cause we live an hour away but if they don't have any by then I'm gonna order a pair of Brevs at reptile pets direct so hopefully thy don't sell out

 

[chameleoman]

Yea my dad doesn't get out of work until 5 and my moms thinks shell get lost even thought she has a navigation system in her car and my parents are going to Vegas this weekend so i doubt ill get any more

 

[qdude46]

Thats funny cause my dad just came back from Vegas and my mom doesn't think we will get lost its just that she's always busy but I have spring break next week so I'll get all the time I need to care for them

 

[c81kennedy]

I use hatchrite to hatch all of my reptiles including pygmy eggs.

 

[chameleoman]

Im already on spring break

 

[qdude46]

Lucky I have short week for conferences so ha, I guess but let us know how these eggs go
