I came home pretty late one night in early December to find that my pair of phantasticus had laid their first fertile eggs...and after much excitement, and a few minutes of frantically putting together a container to incubate the eggs, I gingerly removed the eggs from their cage. When I was done I noticed that they were not hanging out in their usual area of the cage that they hunt in, and took a few minutes to search the cage for them. Luckily I had the camera close at hand as they were hanging upside down from the fig in the midst of makin more babies!
I thought I'd share a couple of the pics that I took as I've found that the number of these pics on the internet are very few. In the second pic you can see one of his hemipenes actually entering her cloaca....Graphic I know, but a educational kinda graphic!
The eggs she laid that day are fertile and progressing quite nicely. She has just recently laid another clutch that is also fertile.
Hope you all enjoy!
