They’ve hatched!
On the 26th November, 72 days after being laid the eggs finally started to hatch! Went to check on them as usual and couldn’t believe it - little heads poking out! 
These first pics show the babies hatching - the first ones took 12 hours to fully emerge from the eggs
This next picture is of the first 7 being transferred to the new vivarium, approximately 24 hours after the eggs started to hatch. They stayed in the incubator until they had fully absorbed the yolk sac, and were running around.
The following day another 9 hatched! Only 3 more eggs to go, and one of those already has signs of hatching. I am so pleased it is turning out so well. Will post pics of the babies in their new vivarium very soon

Hi Calliee! Have you tried him with curly kale? My beardies can’t get enough of this, but leave most other things!
Finely chopped apple is a good treat as well - Shrek goes mad for this!
Good luck with your beardie!
Michael

Ideally they should be fully grown to breed - this is judged by size as much as age, but all beardies will be fully grown by the time they are 18 months. If yours are 18 months then breeding will be fine. What matters most isn’t their size compared to other beardies, but relative size to each other.
Good luck - please let me know how you get on!
