I am so excited I had 3 eggs hatch yesterday. One of the hatchlings did not make it but the other 2 have alrady ate and are running all over. I was wandering when they will change into there adult colors?
Thank you

well..I doubt they just ate...as babies will not eat until their first shed (3-5 days after hatching) because they reabsorb their yolk sacks and get their nutrition from that for the first few days of life.
And well...they'll change into their adult colors when they are....adults? I believe about 10 months or so....

I was surprised too. I offered them some crickets anyway and they both got one and ate it in front of my own eyes. I have bred different types of reptiles before and these are some of the first that have ate before their first shed.
