Re: [DIYbio] Synthetic Eggs?

I was going to try for a 4-legged lizard with wings first but ideally.

To be clear, is the goal of this project to hatch a fire breathing dragon?

What would be the most efficient and reliable manner of creating viable synthetic reptile eggs?

The ideal from my perspective would be to be able to synthesize a genome and implant it into a single egg or sperm cell then grow that within some form of bioreactor, but if nobody has done that as of yet something more akin to altering the sperm and impregnating a female of a similar species would be the least invasive.  Does anyone know of a procedure to accomplish either of these where whole-genome implantation might be possible (as opposed to something like crispr?)
