I have similar pictures of piles of babies from each season since I bought my first digital camera, I can dig a couple more out if you'd really like to see them. I must admit, I don't take many pictures of the adults as they don't tend to sit still and my patience is not brilliant. I take pictures of the babies because people want to see them before buying, and I take pictures of them hatching because even after hatching however many hundred it has been now, I still think it's extremely cute and exciting! It's also just about the first and last time I get to see them sitting still ready for a picture!

These have probably been posted before, but here we go... whee! 
Some of these animals are very young, they often hatch out with quite a yellow background, which turns into the adult colours over the first few weeks or so. The one on the hand has a fairly smudgy pattern, but he has his adult colours. The background colour is quite consistent, the banding/splotching can be black or shades of marone, burgundy or purple.

They don't need UV, prices vary from season to season, hatchlings have been about $250 for the last two or three seasons. I give discounts for multiples and for advance orders Once eggs are laid I'll start taking confirmed orders, they're generally ready about three and one half to four months after the eggs are laid (the incubation period is roughly three months).

They are great looking lizards

Some people keep them in 2' or smaller enclosures, I think 3' is better. The only 'special requirement' is a blasting hot basking spot of around 50-80 degrees. This is easy to supply, you just need a $2 spotlight from the supermarket and a rock placed close to it
