The temperature of incubation 18-22 °, 108 days.
Their mother is 12.5 cm TL and weighed 11 g.



Regards, Seva.

Grats on the hacthlings, they are stunning. The tail sems rather narrow on the first pics, ot is that just the angle of the picture?

Amazing colour and patteren.

Are they keepers?

Really nice babies ! Congrats

Congratulations, the babies look very nice! They are pretty big hatchlings, definitely not a normal phantasticus.

[Seva]

Thank you аll !
To Robin - tail to look like before the first shed, after shed, he became normal (wide).
Tim thank you! I have a clutch of normal U.phantasticus. Their eggs vary in size, too. Later I made a photo and show you.

Based on the length and weight of your adults, I'm sure they are cf. phantasticus. It would be interested to see a comparison picture of the eggs size with "normal" phantasticus.

then mine aren't normal too..
(maybe every phantasticus keeper has his own cf phantasticus.. maybe I produce hybrids.. )

eggs size cannot be taken into consideration, it could vary from simple to double during one breeding season

and then the hatchlings also.. (the smaller ones often die within a few weeks)

quick post sorry for my horrible english

[Seva]

Well, here are some photos ...
Maybe I'm mistaken, she is not 12.5 cm TL, she is 13 cm..

don't know, I'm not an expert, but for me there is nothing obvious

I think your bigger female is just an old animal

for example one of mine (age unknown, old for sure, but still my best breeder), is one head bigger than 1 year old CB female (her daughter)

same with males, I have an old one that would eat any younger mate

(in fact, same goes with any species, old specimens can get really huge, esp. in captivity)
