Musings on Next Year's Lizard GardenSubmitted by zanip on July 18, 2008 - 1:08pm.
07/18/08 Completed the take down of the lizard garden in the back yard. In the process found another clutch of four eggs that was laid in the cage. All four were stuck together, but one broke when I dumped out the dirt and discovered the eggs. I incubated them all together. They don't look as old as the previous in-cage clutch. That particular cage hosted two different cohorts of females and the eggs could be from females #8470, #8471, or #8478 or from females #8539, #8540, #8538, #8535, or #8529. Hopefully I'll be able to back calculate from their date of hatch to determine from which cohort and from which dam they're originated. I hate loose ends and these clutches represent big loose ends as I can't very well use them foran experiment if they're not incubated properly or of known dam. |
