    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....

out of 18 eggs 17 hatched i have them in 3 containers one for each date out of the shell the firday (1st day) has not started to eat yet offered greens and crickets
now im not too worried yet as they say it can take a week or so for them to start eating but my question is when should i start to worry and whats the best way to get them to start eating
im keeping them in the incubator till they start eating for humidity mostly
so i guess thats another question show i move them into a tank that has high basking temps and lower humidity and keep misted
sorry this is the 1st clutch ive hatched and i want to make sure all the hatched dragons live long healthy lives
thanks mike
 
They all should be eating good within a week.

I offer chopped up collards and 1/4" crickets for their first meals.if they seem reluctant to feed get some mini mealworms from Florida. not regular mealworms but the fast crawling black ones. they are like magic for getting baby beardies to eat.

Thanks for the link Ed! I have looked everywhere for those things.
 
No worries, just keep greens available at all times and they'll catch. Bugs are always more exciting to babies. Glad they're eating :)
