    Ok for those who havent read my post on Fauna, let me catch you up.

    On day 50 (yesterday), sometime over night the incubator for my eggs shut down, dropping the temperature inside below 75 degrees. To keep them warm I stuck them on my Freedom breeder rack to keep warm. All were moving when I candled them. When I got home they were nice and warm at 88 degrees, and still all moved when candled. Worked on the incubator and got it running again, left it for 6 hours at 89 degrees, and at midnight placed them back in. Then this morning checked the temp before going off to work, read 89 degrees. When I returned from work today again the incubator shut off down and the temps where 76 degrees! After taking them out and seeing none of them moving when candled, I cut them open (out of panic mode and the advice of what some people suggested in Fauna). I was glad to see 3 of the 4 eggs move, but one did not. Not to keep them cold much longer I put them back on the freedom breeder rack at the temperature set at 80 (to slowly warm them up over sever hours, 3 degrees every hour), and left them to be for an hour. Longest hour of my life? YES! Finally I came back to check on them once again, because I wanted to make sure the 4th one was not dead, I inspected them again, All moved! PHEW!!!!!!

    They are all sitting in their tub sealed and climbing their temps very slowly over night to not shock them from drastic temp climb.

    Now for the part many have been waiting for, the pictures!

    Reminder: Sire Lemon pastel het pied; Dam Blonde pastel het pied

    Here are all of them together opened

    Egg #4: Looks to be normal?

    Egg #2: Pastel possible twins? When we candled this egg 2 weeks ago, it looked like there was 2 heads in the egg. Also this egg never caved in, it stayed swelled, and isnt much room in there as it is. Cant see any heads to confirm the twin theory though

    Egg #3: Pastel Pied!? Looks like it is! very bright orange/yellow on its tail and neck! Looks to be Low white though

    Egg #1: I will leave this one to you guys to determine. I know what I think it is, and have someone else who believes it is too. This is the one that wasnt moving at first. Let me know what you think it is!
