    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....

Uromastyx Eggs.. infertile *pretty sure*

Sorry, I'm a tard!! I should have read the entire thread before posting my question. But, if anyone does find out what my hygrometer should read for these little white nuggets, I'd love to know.:slamit:
 
Hi gang,
I've never bred uro's before, but, I've been keeping them and studying them since I bought my first pair of ornate hatchlings around 1992. I found a uromastyx email group full of breeders and keepers and learned from them for 8 or 9yrs.
So, with that introduction, the hardest part of breeding uro's is their actually having eggs! If the eggs are not fertile, they should probably stink and mold by the end of the first week. You didn't mention if your using vermiculite?
I checked the uromastyx homepage as they have lot's of uro info. I didn't see the humidity info, but you can check as I may have missed it. (theuromastyxhomepage/kingsnake.com) Butch is a great source of info, and Troy Jones as well as Lindsay Pike are both members on the fauna site, as well as long time uro breeders.
There's also a urogroup or 2 at yahoo.com. I'd check out the homepage as that's the biggest uro place, besides the private breeders.
Good luck!
 
Thanks Gina! And good luck Tuniwha! Will be checking back with progress from time to time. :thumbsup:
