New hatchling today!

[Tim/Robin]

This just seems truly amazing every single time! After a long night at work, Tim got a nice welcome home this morning when he peeked in the incubator and saw this little telltale sign...

In this photo you can see a little better.

And here is the pancake tortoises little face.

This little babe has a large yolk sac still and isnt quite ready to make it the rest of the way out of the egg yet. So we patiently wait (for now).

The baby emerged finally today! Here are some photos. Is this the prettiest one yet?

 

[richalisoviejo]

I want that one

 

[Meg90]

BEAUTIFUL! No extra scutes this time either! I liked the little one with the extra scute....they remind me of puzzle pieces!

This one has a very light colored head....was it incubated to be either sex?

Pretty, pretty little shell as well!

 

[Stazz]

WOW ! Very pretty shell marking there Tim & Robyn!!! So exciting to see the new baby, it's like opening a present on Christmas day

 

[Isa]

I will take 3 pancakes please...easy on the syrup. Your babies are looking fabulous. Congrats!

It is very nice to see you guys producing captive bred babies, especially with the wild-caught flood online the past month or so.

[PATMAN]

Wonderful pics!

I'm good at hatching box turtles, but have yet to hatch any tortoises. I do have a pair of pancakes that I hope will breed someday for me. Thanks for sharing those pics of your beautiful baby!
