    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....

Here's the new set up for the yearlings...they had to give up their baby cage for the 11 new arrivals....the yearlings haven't settled in yet...it's always a huge adjustment when you move them to a different enclosure. They moved from the bedroom to the livingroom on top of all that...I'm having to put food in their mouth right now so they are a bit skinny. They'll recover from the trauma and eat like pigs again SOON, I hope!

This is a 55 gallon tank with the former cornsnake background that Jeff make for Nake, there's a bubbler and lots of vines and places to hang out. The temps are in the mid 70's up to a basking site that runs about 90, lot's of variation in temp for them. I'm using 2 10.0 UVB strips and a spot light for heat.

Thanks for looking!
 
Hello

Hello Angie!

That looks absolutely awesome! The lighting is great too! :D They look so happy & healthy. I hope that they are adjusting to everything well also.

Thanks Tracie....check out the babies new pics I just posted when you get a chance. The yearlings are still not moving around unless I move them, then they will eventually make their way to a perch. I'm putting red worms in their mouth and they eat them....they just get so traumatized when you relocate them. I think they are eating the crickets because the cricket tub is missing some but it could just be that they escaped.

I absolutely cannot understand how ANY of the WC's even make it through shipping. I did some rearranging with the adults this weekend and they are still not moving...although gobbling nightcrawlers hasn't been a problem for them.
 
Hello

Hello Angie!

They are SO georgeous! So they don't relocate very well, huh? Poor things they stress easily.
I don't see how any of the WC dragons make it either, I suppose probably not too many of them do huh?
You are doing a fantastic job with your captive bred program. :D
