The first thing you notice when breeding reptiles, is how some species are difficult, not only to keep but also to incubate and raise the young’s. Theirs far to many breeders who will testify that babies of some species are much problematic, the first problem being feeding. Not only with lizards but any reptiles.
To these breeders I say, nonsense! If baby reptiles of any species would be problematic, reptiles would not be one of the most successful animal on the planet. It’s the tools you provide the adults with that leads to good eggs, then it’s how you care for those eggs that makes for strong babies. This you will totally understand when you master all aspect of husbandry, this unfortunately involve many failures I am trying to help you avoid.
The fact that these babies are doing well shortly after hatching says a lot more then you can understand, almost perfection.
Keeping them alive = easy! Breeding them = not so easy! Having them nest = not easy! Hatching them strong = complicated! Doing this repeatedly and consistently = commitment, devotion and dedication!
