CC along with two others have been removed from the incubator, soaked, and weighed. She weighs 59g/2.08oz and has began to eat already.

Wow, almost 60 grams as a hatchling!

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

I thought the same thing. I'm used to to babcocki and CDTs at 21 grams and sulcatas at 32-35...

Thank you again for sharing this with us Greg.

I think at a local kitchen supply store, not expensive.

Right on.

How long does it take before the belly closes up?

Not long, maybe 2 or 3 more days.
