Views? Anyone left them to it?

Any difference in hatchling behaviour, feeding etc?

Females feed whilst incubating?

There is about a million sites you could've found that out.


Mating usually requires a mild cooling or partial hibernation period. The average clutch size is 4 - 10 eggs and average incubation period is 90 days.

nerys did a clutch the other year jase and they hatched succesfully Wink it wouldnt be my choice but it must be an awesome site to see when the babies start to come out.i like to get the moms back on the food asap and a 80-90 maternal incubation period seems like a long time to go after the rigours on dropping 6-7 or maybe 800grm's worth of eggs
