So I have a male and a female that I used to let forage in the backyard together. I was aware that the female had laid a couple of small clutches of eggs and knew that I might eventually have a few hatchlings. I ended up consolidating three clutches together because one clutch was in her hide and a couple of the eggs got crushed and the other clutch was laid too shallow and the soil was very dry. I put fencing around the consolidated clutch and about five weeks ago, two hatchlings dug their way out. Two days ago, three more hatchlings dug their way out so now I have five hatchlings! I know of one more egg that may hatch but there may be other clutches I don’t know about. After the first two hatchlings arrived, I stopped letting my male and female be together at all and the male seems miserable. Is it realistic to try and sell some of the hatchlings to forum members and if so, at what age do you think they are old enough to sell?
