Hi, I am a teacher focusing on ecology and was wondering if there is
any way to purchase empty reptile eggs (already hatched). I'd like to
do a project comparing different egg shapes, textures, pathology of
etc. including birds, various reptiles and fish. Could you tell me if
it is possible to purchase the empty eggs of any of your reptiles? The
cost etc.? Thank you so much for your assistance.
Sandy

Hi. What school and where are you located? I believe I
still have 1 or 2 caiman eggs.
I always figured I’d get more, but we’ve not had the animals
we need, to breed them, so I didn’t keep a great many of them.

If the kids are at all interested, I will be featured on “Reptile
Radio” as an “expert in his field” for my work with
caiman, on January 29th at 11 pm CST and any time after the 30th On
Demand.

I will be mailing the package out tomorrow.
In the meantime, thought you and your class might be interested, I will
be hosting a once a week, weekday, daytime, half hour call in, online
radio show called, “Live – with the CaimanHunter”
starting this Wednesday, on BlogTalkRadio:
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/bam-the-caimanhunter/2011/02/02/live--with-the-caimanhunter
And I will try to give a “shout out” to your kids during
the show.
The above URL is for listening, I think – it might just be the
link for (the entire blogtalkradio station), since I’m new to
this; and the number to call in with questions is: (818) 369-1429
