Mountain Horned Dragon Hatchlings 7 weeks

Hello Angie,

Any updates on your babies??

Tracie

Hey Tracie,

I've got like 3 weeks of weights to post and I can't seem to eek out the time to make the posts. We went to the Texas Renissance Festival the weekend of my birthday (Oct. 22nd) and I've been behind with EVERYTHING since then! I've been weighing them every week but just can't seem to get it posted. They are all doing great. We've moved up to medium Phoenix worms and small mealworms. I want to post pics with the weights but I haven't taken new ones...there is just not enough time in the day! I moved Nip and Stubbs in with the first clutch and everyone seems to be getting along just fine. I added a lot more bendy vines and silk plants so there are plenty of places for them all to stake out their territory. I bought Marcia's set ups - some big mesh cages and the accessories so we'll be ready to set up the female enclosure when they get bigger. The eggs from this season look great...there are 22 in the incubator. Yin and Bruja will both lay another clutch soon...I need to check dates on that so we can be ready. Yin's leg seems to have healed and she's using it to run and chase crickets. 2Toe's shed has all cleared up and Diablo is fine. I don't think Diablo bred 2Toe...there's no sign of her getting bigger. I'll get some new pics up and catch up on the weights this weekend. Thanks for asking about them. Hope everything is well with you! How's the new house coming? Take care....Angie

Hello Angie,

You have been very busy!
So you already moved up in worm sizes, they must be growing then, that is awesome.
Now 22 more in the incubator too? When will they be hatching? I am happy that the eggs are looking good too.
Hey that is great that Yin's leg is doing better now & healing up enough for her to be chasing her crickets. Very good news.
Bruja & Yin are going to tired from laying! LOL
So Diablo didn't feel like mating so 2Toe is off the hook! Will you try again or not until next year?
It sounds like all of the youngsters are doing very well now.
We got all moved into our new apartment. We went out to see our land & we are going to start trying to get the land cleared off soon. It was not as bad as we had expected, either. It will still be at least 1 year before we can get everything put onto it, but, at least we are that much closer. It takes so long to get things done.
I hope you had a good time at the Renissance Festival. We have been once or twice. We miss going to the Octoberfest & Wurstfest in New Braunfels. There isn't anything else like it.

Talk soon. Looking forward to the updates.

Hi There, We haven't been on for a while. The babies sure are cute! And look at all those nice red horns! I do wish that some adults could keep their greens though.

Hey! Good to see you back on Fauna! How's your girl doing? You know, my adults will green up...usually when they are very content...the females more than the male....but I agree...I would love it if they emerald green would stay around....especially with the red horns!
