Thats from two clutches. An unwanted surplus. I had planned for 10 hatchlings and then I found 12 more in theri parents tank at the same day, the babies hatched in the incubator.
Timon lepidus is one of the least agressive lacertids. You can raise babies together fro several months and even the faster growing ones do not harm the smaller ones.
Even the adults areamazingly friendly. I even keep 2,2 together in a larger (1.9 x 1.9 meters) tank.
For other lacertids this can be very different. Gallotia hatchlings start killing each other right out of the egg and as aggressive are the adults...

Best regards

Ingo
