Re: ACK!!! I've got Eggs!!! Now What?
Yup. They start out all cute and small, but I swear the are at least double the size when the little boogers hatch.

Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand

Christie, thank you for calling me today and talking me through it, you're the best!
PS, Karl said to ask Russ - where are his pictures?
You're very welcome.
As for Karl... I'm still mad at him for not coming to lunch with us. *pout* So no pictures for him.
Actually you guys are closer to Russ than I am. He's in Atlanta for the NHL AllStars game this weekend. I swear he sounded like a kid in a candy store, which scares the everyloving wits out of me!!!

i can't believe she layed again after all this time--i'll have to check my records when i get home but i think her last clutch was a month or two before thanksgiving. the girls she was living with before are all being silly and still laying even though they've been separated from their males for 4+ months and are even being cooled. you just never know what they're gonna do!
the babies will be siblings to daytona. she may lay a few more clutches too, we'll just have to wait and see. generally they lay every 3.5-4.5 weeks. i'm sure you'll be a good egg mom robin. the good news is that this call for an excuse for us to get together...
Excellent reason to get together! So....if she lays another clutch in four weeks, do I just put them in the same container with these eggs?

yep--just mark the eggs with a pencil or a sharpie marker (that's what i use) so that you know which are which (i just use numbers). it will probably be obvious by size, but i'd mark them anyhow just in case.
