I received a very gravid female Sceloporus occidentalis at work yesterday that was the victim of being hit by a small rock by some uneducated 3 year old adults. She was not doing good when I got her as the rock hit her on the back of the neck. The attack turned out to be a fatal one but I was successful in extracting 8 questionable eggs from her this morning. This is the second time this week I have had to perform emergency treatment on a reptile "MORONS" Anyway the 8 eggs I extracted are questionable but I suspect she was at the very least close to full term so the 8 eggs are in the incubator now. I will keep everyone up to date. I am not holding much hope for them but anything is possible I guess.

Well as I said I did not hold much hope for the eggs. Within 48 hours they for the most part turned into a smelly pudding in the incubator. Oh well I tryed. I wish people would think before they act. 9 lizards were lost by one dumb act. Oh well I hope they feel better.
