Off Topic, My Emerald Swift gave birth today :0) Very cool

Hey Angela, remember we talked about it, well They mated in July I saw them. Its supposed to take 9 months, figured around March.

So this was quite a surprise. She delivered 10, 2 were born dead, and I rounded up 8 little 1 inch babies, and put them into their own reptaruim.

I told my buddies on the collared forum, it was strange, as the little tiny babies were climbing the sides, and already doing push ups at the parents, who were in turn doing them back.

It was as if the parents territory was being invaded by strange lizards, the way they were acting! Interesting!

Oh and it was hard catching those kids, they are pretty quick for newborns, heheheh very cute hope they live, I hear its tough keeping them alive in captivity !

Congrats Eve!

I had one a very long time ago that gave birth to 5 little ones.
I ended up trading them to a friend for an Armadillo Lizard. I don't really know if they're hard to keep. Its interesting that they already are displaying.....I had a batch of baby Horny Toads do that to their mom and pop. Oh well. Always Fun to have new additions. Talk to you soon,

Happy Halloween!
