In ground hatchers

Well the reds did it again. I missed a few clutches in the greenhouse this winter. No idea when they were laid. But these are pretty cool too, very very dark jet black with almost no markings on head and legs. Some nice super dark pure Guyana babies.

Congrats. How many did you find so far?

How cool! ! ! ! !

May I ask for the comparing picture between the two? Between the super dark pure Guyana and normal one? Thanks.

8 eggs, the one in my hand was walking around in the pen which is empty now, as the adults are outside. Them when I dug the nest up I found that the other egg in the pic was pipped.

Not the best photo. But sure does compare well, next to a Guyana 2 month old.
