    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Tragedy Strikes!

I just checked on my outdoor enclosure of Beardies. Saw a small hole off to the side of a common laying site. I thought to myself "man thats weird!" After a little further investigation I found 14 empty perfectly slit opened eggs. I missed a clutch and they hatched on their own and were eaten! MAN THIS SUCKS!!!!
 
Just wondering

Why did you not have them in an incubater and still with other dragons, I asume they were in the cage with there parents? Why risk it? Just me but just wondering why you choose to do it that way and risk the live of all those baby dragons like that.

Please do not take this post to be offensive I am simply curious to why you do it this way is all.
 
Thanks Karen.

The reason they were not in the incubator is because I missed this clutch. My beardies are outside in a 8 foot by 10 foot enclosure. They have the natural desert sand as their substrate which I keep well moistened for egg laying. With mulitiple nesting sites in a fairly large enclosure its not easy finding the eggs. :(
 
Here you go reptilehouse.

This is my Beardie setup.

Just normals.

A couple of females are lighter colored but I would just call them all normals.
 
Chad, yeah, that does suck.

We live in Florida and I have the dragons outside as often as possible in reptariums. We have a large mesh screened enclosure that was one of the iguana's cage till we built her a larger one that I thought about putting the female bearded's in, but my only fear was them laying eggs and us not finding them.

Sorry you lost a clutch like that, but easy to see how it could happen.
