Yeah! First Pip Ever!

I found a little head peering out at me when I checked the egg tub this evening! :w00t: This is from a Lesser male x pastel female breeding. I can't wait until he/she comes out of the egg. Today is day 54, incubated at 89-90 degrees.

Question- the slit he made is just big enough to fit his head through. Is that normally what they do? And he didn't really move his head while I took the photos....I am probably being a really paranoid mom, but it just doesn't look "right" how he is holding is head through that hole.

Anyways, here's the photos:

Thanks for looking!

looks like a lesser:gj: congrats

Congrats on the first pip, it does look like a lesser.

His head should be fine like that if its not to tight but if it was me I'd carefully make the opening a little bigger to ease my anxiety...lol!

Congrats, I love little babies :)

Thats so cute! I wish I was hatching out eggs right now. :(

awww look at the wittle baby...

Congrats on the Lesser!

Yeah, that is as much room as they normally give themselves. I usually rip the sides a bit to give them more space, but that's just me. They always find a way of getting out if they want to, with or without help :)

It's a cutie. Can't wait to see it fully emergerd :) Congrats.

Thanks everyone! Pip 2 is a Pastel Lesser :banana:

This is soooo exciting! Didn't sleep very well last night :D

Very Nice!~
I love pastel lessers!

OOoh look at those cute little faces. congrats on those two beauties so far. I know it seems like a tiny opening, but just think, in the wild those babies do not have somebody to make the openings wider and they do just fine. Of course I would help just a bit, but thats me. :P congrats again.
