    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....

A few shots of the various gravid chams in the collection at the moment, my first female laid the other day, with several more to follow... This pic is of a Beatty Stock female, 6 months of age, that just laid a perfect clutch of 46 (!!!!) eggs her first time around.

Here is a shot of one of my breeder Sunbursts...

This is one of this year's holdbacks from my personal sunburst lines. The females show fantastic coloration! Some of their colors are very unorthodox for veileds, and they sure are fat and sassy!

Yeah,

I've really enjoyed the females that I bred, hatched, and raised to breed myself. They are pretty complacent about being handled, and show some fantastic coloration! My second female so far this year just laid a WHOPPING clutch of 55 (!!!!!!!!!) eggs her first breeding! I'm pretty excited about that, I've never seen a 6.5 month old veiled throw a clutch that large, usually it's between 43-49 eggs, so off of two clutches I have 101 eggs cooking already from only the first two females, and 8 more females to follow their first time around, then of course, with veileds being a fecund species, all of the females should lay another clutch without subsequent breeding. I'm expecting to produce 1200-1400 veiled eggs this year for next year's hatching. In the meantime, I plan on adding 5-10 female panthers to my collection before the summer is out as well, as I have a fantastic Tamatave male who's almost ready to breed. Thanks for the compliment, and happy herping! -Eric Lago *MS Reptilian Hobbyists*
