    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....

Anybody no anything about Whiptail egg Care???

So i did some research and cant find much.. So i come to the experts on this site.

So anyways i live in SoCal area.. My brother and his uncle caught a whiptail about a week ago. He brings her over to my house yesterday and we wake up to the lizard laying under her hide with her head sticking out and her panting tiredly. I lift up her hide to find her on top of 3 eggs. honestly i am not sure if they r fertile and what not. And i did not want to touch or disturb them and her without further info. Any suggestions on what i should do?

I would think you could find incubation info for WT's, and try to bate 'em. You are already at this point, why not try and hatch them out. Being that it is WC they could be infertile. I am sure you could candle them as well? I am not 100% about WT's though. I would look up/google as much info about incubating the eggs themselves and go from there.
Good Luck!
 
Okay so I just re-read the thread. I didn't put it together that you ARE looking for info about incubating the eggs on here. Sorry:shootfoot
 
I would ASSume that incubation temps would/could be around what your socal climate is at this time of year?.....I would guess moist hatchrite (or whatever you use) Put them in a little deli cup or container with a little air hole.

I would say to only do this until you get more accurate info. The eggs will probably dent and dry out a bit without ANY moisture....I would think?

I usually don't ASSume things because I just make an ........outta myself, but we will see :)
 
If you have luck with them I would love pictures!! :)
Good luck again!! Hopefully someone who knows will chime in.....
