    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....

FINALLY! the first baby of 05!

Congratulations! It is a very special feeling isn't it? I love hatching time, the diversity of the babies, how tiny and cute they are, and how tough they act...good times!


And the hatchling looks pretty darn good for just out-of-the-egg. Keep us updated on its progress!

it is definatly one of the best feelings in the world, it gives you such a sense of accomplishment..now i cant wait for the other eggs to hatch in about a week! :D
 
Dan, nice work. I'm glad you get to experience that feeling that comes with looking into the incubator and seeing that egg pipping. It's like Christmas everytime.

Congrats! He looks great! And those are some great hatching shots. took my comp so long to load and display each pic, it was like waiting for him to hatch all over again :)

I especially like the 3rd shot. That is just adorable.

thanks for all the comments guys, appreciate it :)
 
Fantastic pictures Dan!!!
Congratulations! You ought to mark them so you can make sure they aren't copied without permission. The pictures and the video would really be great for kids to see!!
I had never seen a reptile hatch before. I am just a small hobbyist and don't breed anything. It was just wonderful for me to see them. I hope to own more geckos someday(we have one) and this just inspired me even more!
Thanks for the great big smile you gave me.

Congrats Dan!! You are now officially hooked on leopard geckos. :) Those are excellent pictures by the way.
 
Congrats on your hatching! He looks like a pretty big little guy :)
