Congratulations on the large birth . They look great, and in good hands. I love the tiny horns and the nice red gull displays. Have fun. My baby Jackson's loved Hyde fruit flys, bean Beatles , and 1/8 crickets. Good luck!!
im a little worried. out of 24, 1 of 6 is female. that means very male heavy.
I was hoping to hold on to them till about 4-5 months before selling any. I may not get that chance.
too many boys to house separate. I have other clutches hatching soon.
Has any body raised a big clutch of Jackson and at what point do they start getting aggressive towards each other?
Aggressive at day one. Will mature at around 6 months. Just make sure to keep enough space around them that they can get away from each other. Maybe three to a 18"x18"x36" cage at two to four months, depending on their size. Separate to their sizes. Lots of plants, branches, hides, etc... you could always try the dragon strand nursery cages. I was skeptic at first, but i mean common sense is common sense, right? I will not go extinct, because of unwillingness to adapt or change. The first month or two they should be ok, just carefully watch after that. Most of all my litters were 15-21, some even only had 9. So, not really sure on the big populations.
I guess I'm lucky then. 1 week in and not a 1 has shown any aggression. Every single 1 is super chill. Even to me. I can put my finger and they will gladly climb on. I've had them eat while on my finger.
I've had veiled and panther babies and not 1 clutch has been as mellow as these guys. But this is my first Jackson clutch.
