3rd bluey litter of the year

Postby **Richard.C** » Wed Jan 30, 2013 4:22 am

Went to check on my lizards residing at the folks house today,feed them up as about to do a stint of 12 hour plus days again,checked on the prince regent lass whom i thought had dropped slugs and found a couple of these

Could be a few causes for this,was her first time,shes still smallish,but probably because shes kept slightly different to the others,mind u the male that mated one of the other females successfully is kept identically,so maybe its not that,this female was mated over a 6 week window this season,the male whom mated a 3rd female as well actually showed most interest in this young lass

Ahh well ,will try again next season

A few of the alpines having a munch today to,to make up for no baby pics,theres 4 definate gravid ones in there,not sure the big old girl is this year,shes a bit leaner looking than if she was,she was mated though so time will tell,the younger lasses copt most of the attention this season

Gorgeous! I can spot a couple gravid ones in the bunch.

Sorry about the one female. Same thing happened with my Callie - hopefully round 2 is more successful for them!

Too bad about the slugs

Better luck next year.
Looks like the Alpines will make up for it though :thumbs:

Mine look close but mated in november,usually they drop in march regardless,wether they have bred at start of oct or start of december,which is odd,im predicting march again but you never know i guess,feb starts tomorrow so getting closer i guess

If all goes well, mine should drop in about about 17 months.

Haha,well the bluemountains female in the pic dropped at that age,she was big enough as a yearling i reckon,scott must feed em steroids,lol,most of the gravid ones in the pic are in the four to 5 year old bracket,younger ones having been krpt outdoors since born so taking a while to get big enough,for someone so impatient i sure let them grow slow
