I just had 28 eggs hatch on the 24th , all of them looked the same colour apart from 1 that was a lot lighter than the rest . I was going to keep that 1 as a hold back because of the colour , but i noticed yesterday that it looks like it may have neuro problems , its head bobs up and down and twitches side to side and it is just very unko in movements alltogether . I am not real keen on ending its life but i'm wondering if it would be the more humain thing to do so ?
I will wait and see how it goes with feeding and try to make a decission afterwards . My wife says keep it and look after it , im still undecided as i think it deserves a chance of life but it will not be a quality life in my opinion . I had a 1 eyed jungle last year and im keeping it ( not going to bred it ) as a pet and his powering along and feeding better than the rest of his clutch mates .
Any opinions that may help with my decission would be apreciated ?
Cheers Nico
I would also consider giving it away if i knew there was no way the next owner would breed it later , but IMO there is no way to make sure its not used for breeding .
I voted : keep it as a pet not a breeder .
