***We need this info on balls and burms!! Eggs, just freshly laid and babies just freshly hatched.***

Hey guys we breed balls too, but never did the measurements and weights on them just after being laid. And we cant wait until next season.

Looking for very accurate info including number of eggs in the clutch length and width in inches and mm, also the weights of each eggs. Im looking any much data as we can get for an ARTICLE, if you want to contribute, CREDIT will be given. SO please give your full name if you want it listed. Good way to get accurate measurements is using a micrometer. Weight will be in grams, please be exact.

Also lengths and weights on freshly born babies. Would like individual data on each egg and each baby then we will put it together for an average later.

Thanks, if you dont want to post here please email to me.

Thank you very much.

Hrm...so you can pass the data as your own? It would seem that if you were sanctioned to write an 'article' about this, you would be a bit more knowledgeable/experienced on the subject. If you are just looking for an 'average', then you must take into consideration all of the 'aberrant' types of each (Dwarf Burm's, e.t.c..) which would skew your figures. If it is averages you are looking for, the information can be found in just about any respectable book, website, or forum which are home to many VERY knowledgeable individuals such as this one...

I have been around long enough, and seen one too many 'SuperExoticUberReptilesR-Us' sites to believe that you are gathering data for anything other than to sheist others in the near future. I apologize if this is untrue (and you really should take down the link to your site until there is SOME kind of information other than a MS FrontPage 5.0 template there), but it seems to me that you could derive your 'average' information straight from a number of sources without needing those specifics.
