Egg Hatching PICS!

Back on January 4th I posted my 3 toed box turtle "Clyde" laid 3 eggs. Here it is 60 days later and one of them started to hatch last night. I suspected this was going to happen as the egg had started to dent very badly last week, then yesterday I noticed the dents popped out!

Here are the pics. As I started to take pictures the flash must have annoyed this little girl as she turned around in her egg and tried to dig back in as you can see in the second picture. I will post more pics in a few days when she totally out of her egg.

Here you can see her head on the left with her eye peeking out watching me.
