after a long day of after-the-show straightening out all the stuff that got neglected while we were away for three days...
my kids are preppin' the cgd for the cresties, i'm about to shut the plant light off the breeder tank, and i can't believe i'm seein' what i'm lookin' at...tiny little crestie with a serious stress shed in the corner of the tank ! musta missed that september clutch location, someone was diggin' in the lay spot and never laid eggs there. looked everywhere (or so i thought).
extracted the little bugger while the adults were still sleepin'. hope it makes it.
put it in a food container and sprayed the crap out of it. wish me luck.
checked the whole tank for a sib or another egg...nothin'. may never know what happened to the other egg (or clutchmate).
all this after tellin' chandler that they lay 99% of their eggs right where i expect them too. spoke to soon there !
just thought you'd like to hear 'bout it.
i'll get a pic if it survives the stress shed, haven't had good success with that...

Best of luck I hope the little guy pulls through.

Good luck CK - Hope the little guy makes it...:yessir:

Good luck, bro. Hope the little guy makes it. Thats pretty weird when that happens.

Ive missed eggs before. But usually they dont make it. Ive only had eggs hatch in the cage once and that was ages ago with some flying geckos.

Im pullin' for the little guy.

Man CK I hope it all goes smooth...

Good luck with little one ck. Keep us posted on its progress.

I bet that was a shock to the system, good luck with him man!

thats a crazy surprise. hopefully the shed and everything goes well. dang lil buggers a crafty :)

Glad you found him or her & keep us posted on how its doing

good luck ck and i hope he pulls through it.

Hope the little one pulls through for you.

thanx for all the support guys, was still alive this am, if it makes it we'll call it miracle.
if it doesn't, we probably won't name it...
hopin' for the best,

Congratulations on finding that little one, and good luck on continued success with getting it up and going. Can't wait to hatch out my first Cresteds, the little guys are so addicting! Got 2 clutches incubating now, with the first clutch coming up on 60 days.

I think that ones lookin pretty good, continued good luck.... :cheers:

Definitely rooting for the lil guy to be gifted with a name. Keep us updated for sure. He/she is really beautiful.

Looks pretty good to me. Hope he starts chowin' for ya.

Looking good CK - Looking good...:rockon:

thanx again for the support guys.
will let you know how it goes.
