Just got back from being out of town for a bit so I decided to take a few photos of the babies.

While I was away, a clutch of Trioceros montium started to hatch. Of 10 eggs, 3 babies were out as of this morning with another one well on its way and a couple more sweating. Here are a couple shots I took of them:

Five weeks ago I had a clutch of 13 Trioceros hoehnelii born. I lost one baby soon after they were born but the rest are doing well so far. Here is a pic I snapped of one of them:

Finally, I'm raising a baby Trioceros quadricornis that I got from Josh Hensley. Here is a pic I took of him:

Hope you guys enjoy the pics!

They look great Chris. What are your plans for the Montiums?

I haven't been able to get any decent shots of the Quadricornis lately. They've been much more shy lately. What's he weighing it at? One of my two has grown significantly larger than the other in the past 2 weeks even though there's been a constant supply of food.

Congrats on the hoehnelii as well!

Thanks,

Luis

Yes, this clutch was 10 eggs and a recent clutch from the same female was 9.

Hopefully the montium will do well and most will survive. Provided they do, I plan on holding one or two back and then at about 3 months selling/trading the rest. Same story with the hoehnelii.

Don't have a weight on the quadricornis to be honest. He seems to be doing well though.

Chris,

You seem a bit overloaded, may I offer to take one of each of the babies...just to reduce your stress. I care:)

Congrats, Chris. Will you be selling any of the T. Hoehnelii on here in the future? Sorry if it's a bit premature, but I've been looking for healthy animals for quite awhile!

Edit: I hadn't seen, but you answered my question in your follow-up post.
 
They look great!

I can see how this really can become and addiction!

I'd really like the little one in the second pic down :D
 
Chris those babies are very adorable, You take some fantastic pictures too. I always love seeing young ones.
 
Amazing Photos of amazing animals...as always. Very cool about the Montium babies. I have a brother of your little Quadricornis and I am loving him as well. You captured the blues on the head perfectly.

Thanks for the eye candy!

As of this morning, 7 of the 10 montium eggs have hatched. I have another clutch of montium eggs incubating that should hatch in January. This morning I also have my pair of montium breeding as well as a pair of hoehnelii breeding. I tried with a second pair of hoehnelii this morning as well but the female was not interested.
