So far, a great response, but there's plenty of seeds. Might as well feast at the Freebie Trough. (I'm well-gorged myself, still hungry!)

The reason the babies from the seeds are most likely to be tall type, even though I have a good number of shortie plants in the garden, which are producing seeds, is based on good old fashioned Mendelian genetics.

Tall on the one hand, and short on the other, appear to be distinct one-gene traits in Chamadorea radicalis. These are dioecious (like people, dogs, cats and date palms, etc) so each seed gets a copy of either a short or a tall gene from each parent. If there's two talls, all the babies are tall. If there's two shorts, the babies will be short. If there's one tall and one short, then the babies will all be tall in appearance ("phenotype") but, if two "heterozygous" palms mate, 25% of the babies will appear short, since that proportion will be "homozygous" for the shortie gene.

This is similar to the way people have blue v. brown eyes, where blue are recessive, while brown is dominant. Sometimes two brown-eyed people will have a blue-eyed baby.

Received seeds and cleaned them up a bit, thank you, @DoomsDave!

I'm thinking split into a couple of community pots of perlite/peat, tomorrow, but open to recommendations. Or is baggie with moss more effective?

Do you still have any?

I’d plant them all in a 10 by 10 cm community pot, cover with 1 cm, keep warm and moist, but not sodden and the seeds should pop in a few months or less. I just use regular potting soil. 
 

When the babies get about three leaves put each into a small pot and upsize as needed as they grow.

Just randomly decided to check up on these, and five are coming up already, after only a month. I didn't imagine they'd be so speedy. Now moved into the light.
