Glauerti is laying

[Reptile City]

Yeah, Reptile Citys Glauerti are laying eggs right now.
I thought she was going to die as she was so bloted that her back legs where shaking none stop because of the presure on her spine.
In a few days Rolly Burrell was going to give her a oxcitosin injection to relax her so she would lay.
She is 8 months old.
She has spat out 2 eggs so far & she still looks huge.
I recond she will have around 8 eggs.
The eggs are the size of beardie eggs. :shock:
Wish me luck!
I have had a few nervous days.

Congratulations, she is a beautiful looking animal. (I am not a reptile person at all -- just getting ito it a little)
The markings are lovely.
Good luck.

Wow. At 8 months! Congratulations Jason.

Are you going to have mangrove eggs this season?

 

[Reptile City]

Thanks for the good words.
My Mangrove female was killed by the male a week after heating them back up.
He was too violent in the mating, she was badly bitten on the front leg & back of the neck.
I was devastated :cry: I now only have a lone male.
I have put in an order for another male & two females, we will see what happends next year with the mangroves.

Dam. Thats very sad to hear jason. Will you try and breed with the agro male again?

Who else is breeding mangroves this season or next?

ANOTHER WAY TO MAKE ROCKS Find a rock you like and paint it with several coats of latex glue then use a thin gauze material and apply a couple more coats of latex adhesive let dry between coats Peel of when dry and fill with plaster of paris when plaster dries peel of mould & paint plaster to look like original rock.The mould can be used over & over again. It is the easist way to make numerous rocks i have found..GOOD LUCK...

She ended up laying 8 eggs & all look fertile.
She also looks very tired, poor girl!
I have a 95 to 115 day wait for them to hatch at 30 degrees.
I will keep some back for future breeding & I will be selling some juvies.
They will be $1500 each.

Regarding the mangrove yes I was very upset about the female.
I have thought about a small harness to provent the rough breeding that when on.
I dont know anyone eles breeding mangroves.
I did see one advertised on pet link a fair while ago.

Please keep us informed as I know I'd like some and $1500 sounds alot more reasonable.
