    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....

Got another clutch of ackie eggs today

I was watching the ackies copulate again today which was a little puzzling since she was full of eggs. Well when I looked closer and saw how deflated she looked I knew that the clutch had obviously been laid. So my wife started searching and found the clutch of 7 good eggs. I will post pics tomorrow.
 
Awesome news. Are they red or yellow ackies. I have 4 eggs in the incubator right now from a red pair. They were mating yesterday as well. I only hatched out two from my first clutch so I hope to get these four going plus whatever is about to be laid. I usually have to break my ackies up because I don't like them breeding back to back. Try to stay 2 months apart or more. My last eggs hatched in 84 days and my next set is 60 days in.
 
they are yellow ackies. I cannot wait until these little buggers hatch. I am going to keep a few from this clutch since I did not keep any really from the last.
 
They are a blast to raise. I have one from my last clutch and probably will keep any that hatch from my 4 current eggs. What method of incubation are you using? I made errors right at the end with my last clutch. This clutch had a few bad eggs from the beginning. I hope in 2 weeks I find a hole full of pearly whites.
You have any pics of the parents?

I think I posted another thread on this in the just keep an eye out on the thread to pop up with new pics not this one though since this one is older.
 
Baby ackies are a blast. I hatched some on Easter and last week my female dropped 15 pearly white eggs. I think I have incubation dialed in finally (knock on wood). Sometime we may have do some trading for slighty different blood. Distance cousins are better then brother and sister ;)
 
its the cam its actually not that red just hues in between the circles, and depending on time of day or basking placement it tends to be pretty subdued.
