First baby of 2013!

[Lolo76]

I was going to wait until the whole clutch was out to share pics, but hey... might as well give the first one his/her own thread! First baby out is a very pretty pastel, with a feisty temperament - and a little swollen around the umbilicus too, so I haven't tried popping yet. Still waiting on the other babies, who will hopefully make their appearances soon.







Weighed in at a mere 56g - small but healthy!

Very cute and glad they're all healthy for you.

Thanks! The others are slowly starting to emerge, but still not quite there... and if my count is correct, I ended up with either 4 or 5 pastels and 2-3 normals. Good odds!

Check out this big fella (or gal) - and sorry about the blood, lol:


And this other pastel, who's way too happy chillin' in there:

Nice odds!!! And congrats on the little worms. I love hatching pics Keep em coming!!!

I'm at work now (on a break), so will definitely post more pics when I get home... hopefully a few more will be coming out by tonight!

I am especially anxious to see that big baby out of the egg - not only because of its size, but the pattern & color look really nice. If it turns out to be a girl, I just might have to keep her.
