When I was about to start and do the yearly clean out of my terrariums, I found som egg shells ! Started to have a look around then I found one very dark hatchling, then another one, and then yet another one !!! A whole nest that I had missed. The hatchlings are very very dark, no read nearly a bit purple. They nearly look like "Black Redfoots". Nice surprise :)

Thank God! You are not using leaf blower to blasts through the area.

What a good find and they must made your day.

Yes, that made my day, mate :) And they are all doing well.

But can you explain your first saying a bit, since I'm Swedish, and I do not understand what that means ? I have never heard that expression b4 !

Thanks a lot, that was kindof my guess too, but I've never heard it before... :)
You're welcome. Leaf blowers are a very North American thing. I have one, but I only use it for light snow. I prefer to rake leaves; more exercise.

The found ones always seem to be less colorful than the ones hatched in the incubator. Always fun to find a surprise.
