Our First 2010 Dragon Baby!


He is here... err... maybe... She is here!!

The first dragon to emerge from the clutch of eggs has hatched!

On 3-10-10 Corkscrew had laid her first clutch of eggs for 2010. Kilo and Cork were on their way to become proud parents once again. We have been checking our incubator regularly, anxiously anticipating the first baby to emerge.

Our friends bought us these really cool hatch boxes that keep the eggs moist and yet still provide a lot of air flow. An added benefit is that they keep the eggs still in the rows.

Ben checked the incubator this morning at about 7:50 am... no dragons... by 8:15 when I had returned home from dropping Trev off at school, the first dragon had completely emerged. We still can't tell which egg she/he hatched from... that was quick and stealthy!!! Maybe we can call him Stealth for now... until he finds a new home!

Ben set up the habitat Stealth will live in... and I have been feeding and spraying it down to get the humidity up. I am excited about spending a whole day caring for our new little bundle of joy!

I think we will have 6-8 more hatch this week and another 10 more hatch in the next 3-4 weeks... so keep checking in... I will update this blog regularly with pictures!
