A star is born

[Neal]

Came home for my lunch break to find this in the incubator. It's shell is still folded up, but it should "circle out" in a couple of days.

Congratulations Neal! Very pretty pic.

 

[Jacqui]

Nice! I like the first shot. It looks like she has an animal grazing on each side and then on the right is a woodpecker hitting the corner of the scute.

 

[John]

Neal producing another exquisite animal as always. CONGRATS

He's absolutely gorgeous. Jacqui is right....it does look like an animal grazing on each side and on the right is a woodpecker. Really beautiful markings.

Beautiful baby!

 

[Candy]

As much as I don't want babies, I would love to come home from work to find this. Just adorable.

 

[ChiKat]

Gorgeous!! How exciting

I see the grazing animals, but where is the woodpecker?

 

[TortieLuver]

Wow Neal that's wonderful! That's so exciting no matter how many times you see on hatching and/or look in the incubator and see one has piped through. It's like your first experience every time, as you are just elated. How many in this clutch and have anymore hatched?

exquisite tortoise.

Nice! I like the first shot. It looks like she has an animal grazing on each side and then on the right is a woodpecker hitting the corner of the scute.

Wow, I'm not seeing anything like that.

Hey Neal...

Hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of pointing everyone in the right direction so they can see the woodpecker and grazing animals.




By the way...congrats on the new baby. It looks amazing!

Cheers

 

[Neal]

I see it now! I see all kinds of stuff on him now.

 

[Jacqui]

I see it now! I see all kinds of stuff on him now.

Sorry it's just one of those things that I manage to see, without realizing I am even looking for patterns and designs. It's also one way I decide what animal to buy.... along with scute odditities. Glad they got marked so others (like you) could see them too. I need to learn how to do that!

I am really glad you did that. Thank you! You need to teach me how.
