Our First Clutch ever hatched!
We are super excited that our first clutch ever hatched Thursday into Friday. A very simple clutch of a Yellow Belly to a Normal, all in hopes to hold back a female for later. The day they piped I was up and getting ready for work, and was so anxious to get home and see how they progressed. Had one out of the egg and one came out as I was checking on them. So here are a few photo's of the 5 little ones and Mom and Dad. Hope you all enjoy! :)
Sorry the pictures are so dark, didn't want to drag out the light tent just to weight and photo each one just yet. After the first shed I will get their "Glamour Shots" for you all :)

So over all out of the 5 eggs we got 4 Yellow Bellies and one Normal. The sex odds weren't so nice, lol 3 males all YB and 2 girls, one YB and one Normal. Though I have to say, they are some exceptional looking YB's :) Here are a few shots of each one with a belly shot.
0.1 YB .. she will be staying with us.

Congrats, you did well. Our first clutch was the same pairing and we ended up with 3 YBs and 3 Normals, but all male.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks so much! I was hoping it was a girl, but I'll take the one YB girl, she's really nice :)

Ouch, all males. I was hoping for at least another YB girl. Though the males are quite nice.

Thanks! Those two crazy bellied males are awesome looking. To bad they aren't girls, though I'm tempted to hold one of the boys back too.
