Congrats. I can wait either. We don't see very many little Russians

Agree with Wellington. Need more Russian hatchlings!

I can see a nose!

 

[wellington]

LOL. Boy he's really checking out first.

She is in no rush to get out of her shell.

 

[wellington]

Geez. Talk about slow. So far so cute

Finally decided to come all the way out. Hopefully there will be some clutch mates soon.

so cute!!

Thanks! This clutch sure does seem to be taking their time hatching. The first egg hatched about half a week early and the other 3 are all about 2 days apart. I'm just thankful 4 out of 5 hatched, I always get nervous when they take longer than the 12 week mark.

Do you breed Russians? How many eggs do you typically get hatching each year?
It is so amazing watching them hatch, so hard waiting while they incubate.

Very cute. Baby Russians might be my favorite. So round and chunky. Congrats!

I am starting to. My female I have had for awhile laid 1 clutch of 3 about a year ago. She has laid 4 clutches since December. First clutch was 5 eggs, then 3, then 2 then the last one a few weeks ago was 3 eggs. I'm interested to see how she does next year. My other female is still to small to breed.
