Really interested in these., Have been raising 5 hatchling @ 74 degree and 6 @ 84. Flipped them about 6 weeks ago. Differences in weight gain between the two temps were minimal starting out. Colder temps refused more but still put on the weight. We failed to get measurements however (length girth etc.) All hatchlings (2010 models) are now taking 6 to 7 gram fuzzies/hoppers. We switched the groups and will compare growth slopes in August. right now about 40 eggs incubating - some at 74 some at 84. Another clutch due soon. Will do the same thing over the course of the next year with the 2011s as far as temps go. Our weights now range from 41 to 93 grams. Will probably be at the Columbus OH show to thin the herd in August or Sept. Would be really interested in speaking with any thayeri folks that may be there. Michelle - Holly produced what look to be 19 large, fertile eggs. She may get the year off next. She tried to swallow my arm when she was done laying. lol
