This was my first season breeding Thick tails.
From two pairings I had a total of 10 clutches, (17 eggs) of those 10 were incubated and 9 successfully hatched (last one still cooking)
Here is some pictures

Great! good Job! But, Couldn't be dangerous to breed babies on sand?

Congrats on those nice looking babies!
We don`t see this local form very often here in Europe.
Do you know where they originally from?
Don`t worry I won`t come around an pick some ;-)

Risk of impaction is minimal. I identify the sloppy strikers and de-leg the prey for them when young.

Some are the eastern form (photos 1, 3 &4) and the rest are from Western Australia.

Wow! I really like there collors!
On what tempature do you keep the little ones and is it important that this tempature is very stable?

 

[mad4400]

I aim for 27C / 80F, for the warm end. It is important that they are not exposed to higher temps for extended periods as they are not as heat tolerant as other Aust. species.
