How Many Babies and Eggs does Everyone have so Far.

[bro paul]

Paul - your numbers are incredible.. Do you ever sleep ? Have full time help?

I just get up real early most days :main_thumbsdown: ...but, I was going to say that my collection is nothing compared to some of the addicts...I mean, breeders, on here. Like the post above...:main_yes: Wow, Matt...how many mealworms is that each week?

I know someone's gotta be close to 1000 babies by now...

What do you do with all your free time? You guys are CRAZY!!! I didn't know it was possible to have two full time jobs at once... I mean, each week only contains so many hours. You have managed to stretch the time-space continuim and have survived thus far. Truly amazing.

I was think that someone hit 1000 by now too paul....took the words out of my mouth! lol

We have +/- 35 babies and +/- 30 eggs at the moment. We're finally having a good year, it's soo exciting. A few of our females are finished, some are still laying, and a few more are ready to breed. We're not sure if we want to rebreed or breed any new girls. We don't want to go overboard haha. We're building 2 new racks in the next week, so I have a feeling we'll be breeding a tad more before we call it quits for the season

Congrats to all of you thus far. It sounds like you're all doing well.

Just about 80 babies and 15 more clutches in the inc. some females are still laying.

LOL...I was wondering the same thing Paul. Gotta be alot!!!!

 

[Mel&Keith]

I think we're at 108 babies and have maybe 60 something fertile eggs still incubating.

I don't want to talk about this :main_no:

 

[giantkeeper]

Like 48 babies and 40 or so eggs in the bator....

 

[sacredcreatures]

About 110( give or take) babies and 80 (give or take), eggs still cooking plus 25 females still laying and a couple more are just starting. I get anywhere from 2-10 hatchlings daily and about 4-12 eggs every few days. I have many crested eggs and just 3 little ones so far and I have 6 gravid female Beardies too( oh my goodness I will be freaking out when those are all laid) I go thru over 10,000 mealworms every week to week and a half. and I buy 5000 1/4 size crickets for the tiny geckos to give them a kick start. And 5000 larger crickets( usually the 2/3 size) for older geckos. Plus I buy the Superworms for some I only get 2000-40000 every time I order. Plus I go thru alot of greens for the dragons. I clean, feed/water check for eggs check for hatchlings and do the rehab ones every darn day and it takes about 4-6 hours a day to do the bare min. Plus I raise Manx cats, and have a Emergency Animal care business. I have several animal/reptile rehabs going on, 5 geckos, 1 Iguana, 1 squirrel, 1 Rabbit, 1 fox kit and a bobcat that was shot. I am begining to think I am doing just too much so I can't imagine caring for more geckos than this but I know I will have more. Next year is all special breedings only!!! I love each and every little Hatchling but I think a few less will be OK. Kudos to all whom have lots more! Deb

 

[SaSobek]

well it is hard to have a full time job and do it. but my goal is to start working less at my job. (which i am a vet tech) so i deal with animals all day dogs and cats for my job and my geckos after that.


right now im useing alittle over 30,000 worms a week some i think soon it will be up to 40,000 so that is a lot of $$ a week for the worms.

about the 1000 babies i sure Tremper has had that many already.
maybe by the end of the i will be close but i cant wait till the season is over hahhaha so i can take a break hahahha

 

[DanTheFireman]

Too many, and not enough.

Amen !!

So you basically filled a hatchling rack in 1 day? :shocked3:

 

[BluGnat]

One baby that Double LY has, four eggs in the incubator (two I think aren't viable - they were laid during our move and were coooooold by the time I was able to get them incubated).

 

[okapi]

I had 36 eggs... and some incubator problems.
Out of that I have 7 healthy hatchlings, and one egg left in incubator. Plus one female is gravid right now with a single egg clutch.
