Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Average clutch rates
A question was brought up in another forum and I figured us beardie freaks could address it here. How many eggs does a beardie usually have??? How many clutches do your females lay in a season???
Midori her first year laid 3 clutches and they averaged 22 eggs each. Not bad for a first year female. Her 2nd year she laid one for me and 4 for her new owner. Egg average for that year was 28!!!
I know the numbers vary like the weather so I'd be interested to see what others have experienced.

Hey Mike, just looking at averages I'd say first year females average about 20 eggs per clutch and 2-3 clutches. 2nd year females go up some, around 30 per clutch and 3-4 clutches per season. After that it really depends on size IMO. I've had some big girls produce some big clutches (like 50 eggs) and 8 clutches with the rare girl actually going over 500 eggs in a season.
These are all 18 month minimum females at minimum 350 grams (most over 500g's though) prior to breeding and put on a breeding diet through season.
