Okay, in case the link doesn't work, they're at www.picturetrail.com/dancetoday. Be sure to click on them as they aren't worth looking at in just the thumb nail. There are just two pics there now from the first day and they're getting brighter, but it takes forever to upload with my computer! Also, my females are much brighter now that they are outside. -Lucy

they are SOOOOO CUTE!!!! Congrats! just a few questions...What do the parents look like color wise...i am looking into breeding and was just wondering, since you have a yellow a red and an orange it seems what the parents are? Also when people say to feed them poop from the parents, do you give them it dry or do you wet it or what? Thanks! and again they are great lookign little guys!

The parents of these two are the red/orange male and the same color female. I've asked Doug Dix what happens when you breed a red male and yellow female and I've forgotten what he said, sorry! The yellow female punctured all of her eggs with her toe nails this year so I won't find out until next year, unless I can get Doug to respond again. He's not answering all of my e-mails, he's probably getting ready for Daytona.

He told me to crumble up the poop and sprinkle it on their food. I actually had it in another little lid next to the food so far but I'm going to sprinkle some on today.

Well, I thought they were all spoken for but the guy hasn't gotten back with me. I may sell one that has a little crook in his tail, on the tip. Another has an upper lip abnormality that I'm afraid may be a serious problem. I moved during incubation and I'm pretty sure this is the cause of these problems as I had a beardie clutch also come out with some abnormalities, too, and never have before. But I'm not going to risk breeding these two, just in case. I may keep the other two. I was going to sell them, but then found out Doug Dix isn't selling any of his red babies and figured I better hang on to mine if they're that valuable!! -lucy

The babies are soooooo cute! I am so happy for your success. I enjoyed your other pictures as well, you have beautiful animals. Congratulations on your successful hatching! Hopefully you will have more babies next year.

Thanks, yes, they're incredibly cute, soft and so far seem to not be too scared of me. I'll be interested to see how they are compared to their wild caught parents when they get older, as far as how they relate to people. -Lucy
