livingart Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 one of our female BT's gave birth to 9 youngsters then 5 days later produced another 3 young and today another 2 but 1 was still born with no tail any one experienced this before? i have previously seen them have some live and some partly formed but not over such an extended period Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 thats a good number, i dunno maybe something upset her...or needed time to get all those extras upto size if a dog in labour gets tired you can give em some glucose in water.....not sure how well or safe this would be for a reptile though. hows she looking now, was she eating between births?

Aquatopia Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 This might be a stupid question but then i dont know much about blue tongues - but from reading this, do they give birth to live infants as opposed to eggs ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 I didn't even notice the one on piggy back until you mentioned it! I also thought the other one next to mum was her leg at first :roll: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 is called ovoviviparity - 'egg-live-birth' They develop first in eggs inside the mother,then hatch and are born alive. Someone here had an interesting video of their blue tongue giving birth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
