235. Lucky 13?

Two eggs from Petula this morning takes our tally up to 13 for the 2012 season and we are on red alert today for more eggs on account that the weather is extremely mild and forecast to reach 17 celcius in some parts of the UK. For those holding on to their eggs today is the day we might get them. To date for this season we have 5 females that have now produced eggs. Sadly quite a lot have been infertile or poor qaulity.

233. Meet the parents (28) for the 2012 breeding season

Its that cheeky chap Max Planck once more. This time with Micra, so named as she registered 1 gram at hatch in 2010. If we recall correctly she may be het for Diablo Blanco to go with her APTOR visual wares. This is Maxies penultimate girlfriend for phase 1 of the 2012 breeding season. He might get a crack at some of our chubby juveniles later on in the season if they reach our minimum breeding weight requirement (55 gram.)

232. EHS Norwich show 8th July 2012

Our local reptile club is the EHS and are pleased to announce. Table booking forms for the EHS Norwich show 8th July are now available and being emailed to previous exhibitors. Any body else interested in running a table can obtain one by contacting EHS club chair Colin Ware via
myindigo@ntlworld.com

Just to add tables are 6ft x 2ft and £20 per table. So pretty cheap and a must for local breeders or anybody offering reptile products in the Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambs, Lincolnshire and Essex locale. i.e. cheapest publicity you will get to promote your animals or products and your own personal charm so that when local yokels want something you have got they will remember you.

231. Meet the parents(27) for the 2012 breeding season

Yet again our chief slapper Max Planck the Diablo Blanco has been cavorting and sowing his seeds amongst the girls. this time he is caught on camera with Jungle rock. Her name is on account of her Jungle pattern at hatch. She looks a bit more like what some would call a RAPTOR stripe as the adult she is now. What with these two both having solid red eyes (eclipse) and her patterning we are hoping for some really nice offspring.

230. We are into double figures

Courtousy of 2 eggs from Currant bun our female Tremper sunglow which we collected this morning our egg count for the 2012 breeding season is now 11. We were expecting a few more by now as we have a shed full of girls that are heavily gravid but have been on strike due to very cold weather over the past couple of weeks. Hopefully with increasing daylight and a milder outlook for the weather egg production will pickup as we march toward March.

228. 2012 breeding season update on the update

Sorry its 8 eggs we have which sounds better apart from the fact half of them look no good. Tell you what this breeding lark is not as easy as some people make it out.

227. 2012 breeding season update

six eggs in the incubator, dropped one so thats no good? Tweo more look like slugs. Weather is freezing cold and our girls have gone on strike so refusing to lay. So particularly frustrated at the moment and praying for a thaw.
