Dinner for 17

hatchman Jul 28, 2005 10:49 PM

Check out the video of my babies eating dinner.

The link below goes to Google Video . I think they will ask you to download a small viewer program (1MB) so you can view video.

I'ld like to know if this works or not.

Thanks!

Nice video. But I cant believe none of your turtles have lost tails. Usually when they get into a feeding frenzy like that they go crazy and bite at anything.

I use to have a collection of Leopard Geckos that I bred, but have sold them.

They do get very aggressive while they are eating. If you watch carefully, even when they are viciously snapping at each others worm, they do not bite each other. They do come very very close.

Besides feeding time, these are the most gentle reptiles I have ever experienced. They peacefully hangout together (see picture).

How old are they?

They were layed June 6. They hatched the first week in September. They started eating the last week of December. The video was taken in March. So, they were about 6 months old!
