I the elegan department all babies are growing nicely. Eggs have slowed for the season and all are spoken for. Will be hard to see them go

My little tripod baby is still kicking. He is slower growing then I would like, but growing.
Little bo**er will be a permanent resident with me as a spoiled pet, removed from the breeding pool.

Discovered two things about the whiptails today.
I have atleast one adult female, they eat each others eggies >:[.

Stay safe my Asheville people.

Continuing a great morning, a fresh hatched elegans makes 100% success hatch rate so far for my first season working with this species.

I did lose one egg, but that's cause I cracked it so I'm not counting it 👀.

Listen. I'm not generally the type of person who freaks out or has strong emotions about stuff.
I had convinced myself I'd failed on breeding these guys, or maybe failed on keeping the ooths. So to walk in this morning and find babies all over the place, yall I made noises!
I haven't even counted yet cause I don't dare, but there's at least 15. They were -everywhere- cause their containment was not secure. I had absolutely convinced myself they weren't going to hatch at all. I suspect I will be finding a baby here and there over the next few days.

ok, shows directly after kids return to school means everyones getting sick, got it XD.
Im still recovering from Greeneville, but in the meantime a few eggs have hatched, and the fasciatus female shave a new husband finally! For the small price point, these little guys are surprisingly hard to find.
I also missed a sale on an adult sphaero sputator pair that Im mourning. Its a fine line dancing between impulse and quick decisions, dont be like me! XD.

I have a small availability list, local pick up and shipping options available.
1.1 adult pair sphaero elegans $200. this is the last adult pair I will offer

1 unsexed p**i fasciatus baby. CB a month old now.

1 unsexed CB sphaero elegans baby

trio hispanilan curly tail. 1.1 and one unsexed, but I suspect its male. Theyre WC, but have been with me for several months and not only are doing well, but have started to tame down. Female has a cutch and is currently working on a second.

Locally for sale I also have a couple prop boxes for $100 each.
random assortment of about twelve plants I believe. some worth $30+ a piece so a fantastic bargain. Feel free to PM me and Ill send some pics with the plant list.

If you were thinking about it yesterday, but left undecided allow me to tempt you.
I have one Batchelor pad with an adult male sphaerodactylis elegan inside.
Enclosure is bioactive, roughly 3 gallons. Perfect for a single micro gecko.
This makes a fantastic desk pet or shelf filler for a bit of living art with growth and motion.
Low maintenance, just feed your friend and mist him.
I'm happy to go over care tips, but these guys are pretty bullet proof.

Ohboy, we get to vend this weekend!
Another greeneville mid Atlantic show this Saturday to look forward to.
I'll have spoods, sphaero, some planted bio enclosures, and a couple large cutting prop boxes.
Only one table this time, but plenty of pretties to maybe take home.
Come same hi!!

yahyah Im a big nerd, I come back to WOW now and then when they have a new xpac then I will abandon them for awhile. but.. look what they DID!!??

2nd wahlbergii ooth from the only female I gor from the bunch. I suspect I should get at least three from her.
Not confident the 1st was fertilized, but this one I have high hopes for.
She ate one male and has one left, but so far that one's been clever about breeding her and getting out safely.

I know not a lot of people will be as excited about these ad I am. But I've found them to be a highly underrated species that's very rarely found in the hobby and I'm stoked to see this girl looks to be working on some eggies.
I know she was gravid when I got her, but pretty she she or one of the othera ate the gas shortly after laying cause they were no where to be found.
Going to be keeping a very close eye on her.

OK I'm a little embarrassed to admit it took me a few days to realize this little bo**er is missing a leggy.
There's no injury, appears to have hatched minus one limb, I noticed the previous day that walking they were a little awkward, but I chalked that up to fresh babies on sand.
They're still fast af when running/hunting.
So far they seem to be fine otherwise, but looks like they will be a permanent resident here and I'm going to start taking name ideas!

The only death I had this season was my male pachy fasciatus, unsure what caused his passing, but it means the two fertile eggs will probably be the only ones I get till I can get and grow out a replacement for his widows
Which makes me extra pleased both of them hatched recently.
They're not a complicated species by any stretch, but they are an enjoyable one to have around

Little bit humid

08/08/2024

All my nc people stay dry and stay safe.
Not the worst of storms, but not without its dangers either!

There's my stripey baby!
I get a lot of people asking how small babies are when they see tiny adults in person. Wonder no more. My finger is pressed again the plastic on the other side so no forced perspective here.
