Hatchlings are hatching!!

The first two hatchlings have made it out alive and they are FEISTY!!! They were running around wreaking havoc in the incubator on top of the other eggs. It only took 65 days (which felt like freaking eternity!) They definitely are Kora's kids....bright ORANGE already! They're too cute for words...teeny tiny and I can't wait to move them to their new home.

Here they are in the incubator before I even touched them (Baby #2 is hidden)



















(Notice the orange little specs on his lips? Kora has the same thing :)


















Baby #1 posing next to a quarter for size. Look at all that color

Baby #2 on left, #1 on right. They are a little under 4 inches.




















Cutest little thing!

Sweating eggs! Day 63....

The eggs started to sweat today! All 5 of them are still alive and sweating. Hopefully that means they're ready to come out soon and not that the humidity is too high. I've been checking on them every few hours to see if any are dented or deflated....but nothing yet. Here are some pics, it's hard to see the sweat spots but you get the idea!

First clutch is getting close!

The first clutch of 5 is now about 50 days old. A few other breeders I've talked to say they look really close to hatching because of the transparent spots and the eggs are getting stretched really thin. Hopefully there will be some BIG babies in there.





















These pics are a little old, taken a few weeks ago, but they show more vein development since the last candled pics on here. I'm sure now they're even bigger and the "shadow" in there has grown too. Will try to get some new ones soon.
