[…]of water. The substrate should be placed within a small Tupperware or similar container and the eggs half-buried into the substrate. Weigh the container, with substrate and eggs inside, and note this figure on the container’s lid. Re-weigh once each week – any drop in weight is the result of […]
[…]of Sydney biologists have revealed that large skink eggs develop into females, while small eggs become males. Furthermore, removing yolk from a large egg resulted in a male hatchling, despite the fact that female genes were present; adding yolk to a small egg over-rode the effect of the male genes […]
[…]species have been shown to actively raise the temperature of their clutch by coiling about the eggs and “shivering”. In captive situations, I have observed incubating female blood pythons (Python curtus) and Burmese pythons (P. molurus bivittatus) to raise their eggs by 7F above the ambient air temperature. Field research […]
[…]to manipulate the hatchlings’ sexes. Please post below for further information. When removing eggs from a terrarium, be sure to make a small pencil mark at the top of each, so that they are not accidentally rotated. Oils from the skin can clog air pores, so use powder free gloves […]
[…]dose and a soak time of approximately 1 hour – gradually increasing both if necessary. For eggs, I dilute the Methylene Blue in water and then use an eye dropper to place it on the eggs (approximately 1 drop per 2 inch square of egg mass). Treated amphibians will be […]
[…]efforts and very willing to consume their progeny. Amazingly, a female in my collection deposited eggs without entering amplexus, and a male fertilized the eggs the following day…please see the article below for details. Observing Breeding Behavior Despite their generally bold demeanor, paired African Clawed Frogs are extremely sensitive to […]
[…]gills, never see the light of day, do not mature until age 16, and reproduce by both laying eggs and bearing live young. Despite their very unique natural environments, Olms do quite well in zoos, often living into their 70’s. Due to the Olm’s rarity, researchers have maintained a breeding […]
[…]reports indicate that Giant Horned Lizards mate in April-June, with gravid females laying 10-30 eggs after a gestation period of 60-70 days. The eggs hatch in 10-12 weeks when incubated at 85 F. Horned Lizard Care Horned Lizards are hard to resist, but it is a mistake to attempt keeping […]
[…]Additional clutches of 1-2 eggs are laid throughout the breeding season, to a total of 8-10 eggs per female. The eggs hatch in 30-45 […]
[…]forearms). Male Smokey Jungle Frogs use their powerful rear legs to whip the jelly surrounding the eggs into a frothy mass of sperm, jelly, skin secretions, air and water. This nest surrounds the eggs and is deposited in a natural (or possibly self-dug) depression in the ground, usually at the […]
