Okay so no babies have hatched yet.. I believe they are in the process. Very active yet. I candle to see the shadow shifting around. Lol. The veins inside the eggs have begun to shrink. They're almost impossible to see unless you find the right angle but then they're still very hard to see. The eggs look very brittle and spiderwebbed looking. They began to make holes in the eggs 1 week ago now.. the holes are starting to get tad bit bigger. Not sure what I'm expecting. I peak at them everyday. So I notice tiny little holes and such. Still not entirely sure they're hatching. Assuming they are being as they are 66 days today. I did change out the substrate in my boxes for the eggs just in case it was too moist. It wasn't bad. I'll keep everyone posted if they make the great escape. If any ones has any pictures of eggs when they first begin to hatch. Mine are just flaking away and brittle and have pencil lead size holes poked where the little guys back feet are and some where his head is. Yesterday I caught the little one opening and closing his mouth inside of his egg. Never seen that before..
