my bearded dragon just laid 20 eggs, most i had to throw away since they were bad. What do I do when the remaining ones hatch? Do I put them in something special? This is the first time any of my animals have had babies hahaha Oh, and how long til they hatch? people have told me but i can never remember :(

Put them in a 20 gallon for a lil and watch seperate the weak from the strong becquse they cam stress each other out and make sure the eat enough because each baby cam eat 50 -100 crickets in a day

you need to put the eggs in a incubator at 80 to 85 degs. they take about 2 months to hatch. eggs need to be in moist not wet vermiculite.put them in so there covered half way up the egg.then hope for the best. when they hatch you can treat them the same as adults meaning same set up and a little higher temp. good luck,

Congrats on the eggs. I'm sorry I can't help you on this one. I haven't bred any reptiles yet. But I do recommend putting the babies on paper towels or brown butcher paper ( you can get a big roll at Home Depot ) and not on sand. You don't want them to get impacted.

yeah i got the hovabator, so far everything seems to running good *fingers crossed* i lost half the clutch already :/ they were terrible looking; the remaining ten look really good. I put all 20 eggs spread out in 4 i think they call them 'deli' cups? should i combine the good eggs together since the other ones are gone?
