Default And the wait begins! U. guentheri eggs

I just got my first pair of U. guentheri eggs!!! These came from a WC female I picked up the other week, and found her this morning completely underground rolling eggs.

Thanks guys!! The cool thing is, here in the US, we are now one step (actually 1.5 steps) into diversifying our U guentheri bloodlines. I know a few others with some WC stock, but every little bit helps with these guys. I remember looking at a few CB at the Daytona show in 2001, and saying how much I wanted one... but couldn't fork out the 750-900 dollar price tag on them at that time

It's insane how different things in Europe are in comparison with the USA...
We have no shortage of guentheri (but obviously don't have a surplus) but almost all the other species are difficult to come by (and very expensive).

Anyway, I am glad that things are looking better for guentheri in North America. Hopefully you guys can get some more bloodlines sent over from Europe in the coming years.

Congrats Silas! Looks like we have some trading to do in the future. I just uncovered another two eggs from one of our WC females.

I can't wait to get to the "Trading Status" hehe... I am now mapping out how to start breeding my guentheri in the future...

I have 2 males from Neil's stock (not sure the lineage or generation) and a WC pair, with now possibly 2 unrelated to all males (if the eggs hatch).

Got to map out the cleanest route.

And I guess I need to get cracking on the Uroplatus Network again, start getting things lined up so that We all can start tracking some lineage all together!

Just found 2 more eggs from the WC female... still have not paired her with my WC male, and now I wonder just how much she has left in her!! I don't like waiting... 70 days for my R. ciliatus seems too long some times!

6 for 2 deal I got a few months ago (if all hatches) seems to be a pretty dang good deal!
