    My first eggs!
    this morning i found two pearly white eggs in a little nest my cresty had dug. i had caught them copulating a week ago so i thought i had more time to provide a nest box but i guess the male must've been an excitable little guy :)
    no pics, but i thought i'd share... i'm excited! plus i have one, possibly two gravid carpets.:banana::banana::banana:

    Congrats! Did you just put them together a week ago or is that just the first time you actually saw them copulating?

    i've always kept them together in a rather large viv... that just happened to be the first time i saw the copulate. last nite i caught them goin' at it again though. i guess i may have to separate them afterall to avoid issues for the female.

    i haven't... after i took the picture i stuck them in a perlite setup though. my 15 month old son lost my LED pen light awhile ago and i've yet to replace it :)

    Wow, must be pretty warm where you are incubating them? You might try putting your incubator somewhere a little cooler so they incubate a bit longer.

    Congrats though--can't wait for some pics!

    yeah, they were just in my herp room. i had two snakes that came down with RI's post-breeding season though so i had the heat up while they were recouping - i didn't even think about how it'd effect the crested eggs. they look nice and healthy though.
