What kind of herp have you bred before or attempting this season? Really were not doing it, the animals are but you get what I am saying :p

I have and am currently breed Skunk geckos, aka White lined geckos. I have had one hatchling and have 2 more eggs on the way, which should hatch soon :)

And in 2005, we hope to breed our amazon tree boa's (which are going together in a couple days) , leopard geckos, tokay geckos and eastern collard lizards :)

What about you guys?

Only thing ive bred are albino leopard geckos, which didnt go over to well. I also hatched out a turtle when wc female painted turtle I had randomly layed eggs.

Im planning on breeding ball pythons in the next year. I hope to breed jcp's, corns, and possibly boas way down the road.

I've never bred a thing (a side from CH green frogs). This year I am hoping for Corn Snakes, Bull Snakes, Psuedelaphe flavirufa and maybe Yellow Rats.

I have only bred cresties which are as easy as pie. I'd like to get in to breeding different uroplatus in the future.

I've successfully bred nigerian uromastyx, AFT & leo geckos, giant madagascar day geckos and dwarf sand geckos(AKA micro geckos). I've kept all sorts of different snakes, geckos and lizards but I think I've fallen for my uromastyx! I now keep only uromastyx!

Giant Madagascar Day Geckos. Which are easy as well. That's it really. No plans for anything in the future. I may breed my fat leoard gecko girl in the future. Just because I love her and would like one of her offspring. I would consider loaning out some of my kids for breeding projects though. I'm not super interested in breeding.

I like just keeping them as pets mostly. Most of everything that I have is common and it doesn't make sense to me to breed. One day, if I kept something rare or uncomonly bred in captivity and loved the species, I would definately consider it.

In the past, I've produced leopard geckos and pictus, both of which I continue to do. I just received my first crested gecko eggs last week, so am excited about that. The big thing that I'm looking forward to is successfully producing many fat tail geckos this coming season. I have numerous females, some captive bred, some imported, that are all ready to go once I bring them and the males out of cooling. Should be an exciting year I hope.

Here are a few things I have bred.

Dendrobates azureus (blue dart frog)

Dendrobates auratus (green/black dart frog)

Dendrobates imitator (mimic dart frog) (I have only gotten eggs from the imitators so far.. no good eggs yet)

Dendrobates ventrimaculatus (I have yet to get good eggs though from these)

Bombina orientalis (Fire belly toads)

Chameleo calyptratus (veiled chams)

Lygodactylus kimhowelli (yellow headed dwarf gecko)

Ptyodactylus guttatus (fan toed gecko) (eggs still cooking)

Paroedura pictus (ocelot gecko) (eggs still cooking)

I think that is everything.. though I may be missing a few things. I have produced viable offspring from all the species I have mentioned except for the ones noted in parenthesis. I have bred hissers too, but they don't really count :)

I personally haven’t produced any of my own animals this year my pair of BCI are going at it, and I have a feeling one of my PTS is carrying a little something for me. I keep more out of interest in the species then for breeding purposes.

Green anoles started me off, from there I moved on to Stenodactylus petrii, S. sthenodactylus and Tropiocolotes tripolitanus. The reptile bug really hit after that. So far I've successfully bred and raised tons of leopard geckos, crested and garoyle geckos, P. pictus and Gehyra vorax. Some of the less common/trickier ones include Coleonyx brevis, C. elegans, C. mitratus, Hemidactylus mabouia, Lygodactylus capensis, L. kimhowelli. In the Day Gecko department, -- Phelsuma laticauda and P. quadriocellata, P. lineata. Some of the 'oddballs' - Platypholis/Homopholis boivini, Gekko smithii/stentor, Pachydactylus tigrinus (which are almost hatched gravid, no boasting of breeding skills with these guys :) Uroplatus fimbriatus, P. henkeli P. phantasticus and P. sikorae (great hatch rate, rotten survival :( )
Hemidactylys garnoti too, but they're parthenogenic, so there's not really anything to getting them breeding, it's almost cheating :)

The only lizards were the anoles and Cordylus warreni.
Frogs..... several thousand Red-eyed Tree Frogs running around are my kids. Dart frogs - Dendrobates auratus - green & black, blue & black, reticulated green, '6 Points', turqouise and bronze. D. azureus, Dendrobates tinctorius - cobalt, citronella, sipaliwini, "Patricia", "Regina" and "Powder Blue" and 2 clutches of Fire bellied toads.
No snakes.... yet :)
That's all I can think of right now.

So what have you bred and what are you trying this year? I can't wait to see how long some people list will be. Oh and Roy and Don I expect to see you post on this one too!

Leopard geckos, tokay geckos, northern alligator lizards,anoles, western skinks, BCI, ball pythons, corn snakes, kenyan sand boas, amazon tree boas, I think that about sums it up. 2005 should be much the same minus most of the legged variety, the only ones will be the Tokays cause they are so simple. More snakes perhaps. Oh Travis you are pretty thick man, check out this thread again and you will see you did post on it on the eleventh and then again today! LOL!!! Anyways Happy Holidays everyone and many successes in the coming year!!! ssnakess does still rock!!!

Tried blackheads, but they popped. Emeralds got too glamorous. Jaguar carpets got too dirty and needless to say, Salmon boas STANK! Boelen's were ok, but I needed more of a challenge. Oh wait! YES! I know what I wanna breed! GUPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;););)
