Not showing as much red/orange on the posts as they have, and I can see on my computer. I wonder why??? Oh well, here's a close one.

I see lots of tail nips. Otherwise the picture provides little details. Are they all housed together? How often are they fed? Have you found the tail nippers? I notice that the numbers on their backs go up to 16 and yet there are only 15 in the basket?

Ya, I've got 5 tail nips. 2 from another dragon (yes I got him identified) and 3 from a new enclosure I was trying that was supposed to "fix" the problem, it had these divider things that separated them but their tails got caught in the dividers (guess I won't be doing that again) besides it was a pain in the but to get a thermalgradient in the thing. They are fed salad with pellet in the morning and hand fed a pellet mix in the eavining. I think the hand feeding helps tame them more, they associate handling with a good thing FOOD. NO LIVE CRICKETS this is a new thing for me going cricket free, no complaints here (although I have to admit that I ground a few up in the night mix a couple of times). There were 16 originally, I did loose 1 (they're babies, it happens occasionally) I saw no need to try tp hide it and re-number everybody. You say no detail in the pics, but you managed to pick out the nips and count the #'s, with the size restrictions on photos what else do you want?

used those tanks with the plastic dividers and got tails pinched in them, the tails are so tiny and they got wedged into the things with the way the babies lay in corners.

You learn as you go along, thank you for being man enough to not hide it and let others learn from this.

To often others claim "no problem" when in fact they have them.

Quoting heartmountain: "You say no detail in the pics, but you managed to pick out the nips and count the #'s, with the size restrictions on photos what else do you want?"

I did not want anything from you, you wanted some responses to your babies and I provided a response. Yes you are limited to the size of photos you can put on this forum, but it is not hard to tell that a few babies have tail nips nor to see the numbers which are written across their entire bodies, but in details I was specifically referring to the patterning, coloration, etc. of the babies. I am sure they are healthy if they are treated as you described and 15/16 is a good number. Good luck in rearing them and finding them good home.

While tail nips are unfortunate, my favorite female has a nasty kink from a tail bite. I think they are great! Please keep us informed on the "cricket free" diet. I have decided to do the same this year with my babies.
