My bearded dragons bred. What to do with the hypo bearded dragon babies?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

My Hypo bearded dragon(male) mated with my Amarican leatherback (female). I'm not sure what to do with the babies because as ive heard recently, breeders are trying to get rid of the hypo geene. What should i do with the babies if they dont turn out to be slugs?

If the eggs are recently laid, simply discard them. If not, you can still sell them. I haven't heard of breeders specifically not breeding hypos anymore. There will always be a market for them among casual collectors/owners.
