The Dragons are Coming!!





What started out as a normal school day completely changed when the bearded dragon eggs we have been incubating started to hatch. The mommy, Padme, laid 28 eggs of which about 4 never developed. So, we could have LOTS of beardies soon.

Here are pics of the first two. As I checked the eggs this morning, they had hatched and were running around. I can't wait until the others hatch.

In the one picture you can see their mom looking at them as if they would make a good lunch. My dc's wondered how any babies survive in the wild if the grown ups want to eat them.

If you would be interested in one, I am asking $50 plus shipping which must be one day. They will be ready when they are approximately 7 inches long, roughly 5 to 6 weeks old.

So, can I count this as science??
