Here is a little set of pics of my dragon eggs and them hatching and some of the babies.
First up, here is my female laying her eggs.

Neat pics. It doesn't seem like there's enough room in her body for that many eggs :o. The babys are cute.

I thought the same thing when an ig I had brought into rescue became gravid. After her eggs were laid - all 54 - the vet weighed the eggs and then weighed her. She was a mere 3 lbs and the eggs were a lb. exactly. 1/4 of her weight was eggs!
Neat succession of pictures. Babies are always precious...;)

Baby beardies have the greatest personalities too. Funny watching them run all over. ;D

What's the size of the hatchlings? They look so tiny, and Nibbler was so small when we got her, I was attempting to figure out her age and the more I see baby beardies the more she looks like she was under 1 month old.

Thanks everyone ;D I think the same thing, like how in the world can you hold all those eggs inside you :o I was amazed I actually caught them hatching, so I had to get those pics. When they hatch they are only 3.5 to 4 inches long.

Amazing how they fit into such small eggs. Like leopard gecko eggs do they have to remain right side up?
Yep Stacey I do think ours was just hatched. You can see how small she was here (http://www.thereptilefile.com/forum/index.php?topic=199.0).

What a great play by play!! It is wonderful to see, from someone new to this type of pet. The books don't show these types of things. (that I've seen as of yet)

Great pictures. I love hatchlings. If I had my way we would have more than just two bearded dragons.

Your welcome :) Thanks for the comments everyone ;D I too have noticed that the books don't really go much into this. Rwagoner that one you have, which is very adorable btw is most definitely one that was just hatched.
