They started today, which is day 50. Much sooner than I expected, but I'm not complaining. :)

Congrats! I've been following this thread since you started it. I went to check out the live feed and the first thing I saw was an adorable baby yawn! I'm so psyched right now, I couldn't imagine how your feeling!

Congrattssss!!! At this point, I am very sure the eggs are alright even if u didn't move them...

Sometimes the live feed goes offline, but I try to correct it when that happens.

I'm not sure if the live stream is working for me. I see zero movement. How many babies have pipped so far? I only see the one.

Only the one baby has pipped. He/she holds still for long periods of time. They take a while to hatch.

I'll be bringing the feed offline soon, and setting it back up tomorrow morning.

Well gratz! It's nice to see another person trying MI. We just got out first clutch for this year and as normal we let all our females handle it themselves unless there is a real concern for them or the eggs. Can't wait to see what you hatch!

I feel asleep watching the little pipper. I think you should name him Pip.

Second pipper today, but hid shortly after I took the photo. I have the livestream back up as well.

Third baby has arrived:

I think so far we have a normal, a butter, and a pastel butter.

Excellent job on documenting this journey so others can learn from it!

I just watched this little one yawn 6 times in a row! So adorable! Do babies usually yawn a lot?

So exciting watching them finally come out. I can just imagine how you feel

Here's Baby #4, a Queenbee:

Amazing thread! Am now sat at work watching your little ones hatch - love the live stream :D

This is so exciting! Congrats on the little ones, especially the Queen Bee!

Congrats! I would call this a maternal incubation success!!

No new pippers yet, but the live feed is back up.

I cut the last two eggs, which had tougher shells compared to the others. They appear to contain either butters or pastel butters. The normal baby who first pipped left the egg a short while ago.

The fifth egg is a butter, just waiting on the sixth egg to pip now.

Big congratz! You did great!

Very Cool....Congrats

The last baby didn't pip, so last night I cut open the egg and found a very small but fully developed baby inside. The baby is currently on very damp sphagnum moss in the incubator, still attached to the yolk. It seems to be doing better, is breathing and seems to be absorbing the yolk as well. The shell of the egg was thicker than the others, so I wonder if the thickness kept it from getting as much heat as the others, causing it to develop slowly.

The babies are out, and the last little one is still doing well.

The final count is:

1 Normal
2 Butters
2 Pastel Butters
1 Queenbee

Congrats on the little ones. That queen bee is amazing looking. The thread was a joy to follow. Good luck with the next batch for maternal incubation.

Did you sex them yet? I really want to know what Beepers and Boop are.

Beepers is a male and Boop is a female, lol.

Did you decide who you're keeping yet?

I'm going to be keeping a female pastel butter. The last baby is just about done absorbing the yolk, and if it's female I will be keeping it. If not I'll be keeping the other pastel butter.

Here's baby #6 just a short while ago. Is doing SO much better. I am very relieved. :)

So, QBeezy is a male?

O.o Can you label the males/female with their morph? I'm not following all the names. That and I'm nosy.

This is such an awesome thread to follow. And how come your not gonna keep that gorgeous queenbee? Kudos on a job well done. :gj:

Beepers is the normal, Boop is the butter with the longer neck stripe(I think), and QBeezy should be obvious...queen bee incase you haven't guessed it.

I'm starting to transition more to pinstripe stuff, and I'm hoping for a three gene male from my pastel butter x leopard clutch.

They are all beautiful, gratz on a successful and gorgeous clutch!

Congrats! The small pastel butter has such great blushing / dark outlining, I can see why you'd want to keep her.

Thanks for documenting this, if I ever breed, I was planning on doing MI and seeing results like yours give me hope that it can be done successfully.
