OMG!!

When its for sure that all the eggs that are going to have hatched, I'll let you all know if I have any for you to have. I really won't know for a while because the eggs aren't hatching in a timely manner. And by that time, if I have any left over, the "pristine" look will be gone.

 

[Jessie]

Congrats, absolutely amazing. Hopefully more hatch.

 

[ForestExotics]

Nice love them. If you have some left I can grab let me know.

If only I had more space...sigh. They are so beautiful!

This is CRAZY!!! The last egg in the incubator hatched on 2/25. Here it is, 36 days later, and here's what's in the incubator this a.m.:

So learn this...Don't ever toss those eggs!!

 

[dmarcus]

Some just take there sweet time I guess...

 

[JoesMum]

That is amazing!

 

[Momof4]

Wow!! What a surprise to wake up too.

 

[Zamric]

so, is that #8?

 

[Yvonne G]

Yup. Two went to David a couple weeks ago (where's our pictures, David!!), two are promised to a member in Arizona, two are promised to a member who lives far, far away, so that leaves one in the incubator and one in the little habitat that need someone. The one in the incubator won't be ready to go for a couple weeks.

 

[cmosuna]

If they need someone we would gladly give them a loving home

 

[Jacqui]

It's a dot! Oh come on, it's not a split scute?????

 

[Ahernandez1990]

I would love to give one a home this will be my first one and am very excited to eventually get one

 

[Yvonne G]

It's a dot! Oh come on, it's not a split scute?????

I haven't seen the whole body yet. Its still stuck "on the half shell."

 

[froghaven5]

Oh my gosh how awesome! Aside from them being totally adorable, I love the story behind them. I'm so amazed they are still hatching

 

[Arizona Sulcata]

Congrats!

I took the little guy that hatched out a couple days ago out of the incubator this a.m. and put him in the baby habitat. He's very precocious! He still has a bit of a yolk sac attached, and they usually don't start eating right away, but he's in there just eating away. As you can see from the second picture, there is a lot of left over food that needs to be cleaned out. Its all dried up. But he doesn't care. He's eating all he can find!

 

[Zamric]

I guess sitting in an egg shell that long will build up an appitite that even an egg yolk wont satisfy!

Another one hatched yesterday and another today. Do you realize that this is over 6 months incubating? for leopard eggs??? Everything about this clutch is amazing! Too bad the babies are just normal-looking.

Truly amazing : ) I am sure you probably answered this before so sorry for asking you to repeat yourself but what temperature were they incubated at? It's seems as if they have undergone a seasonal diapause but it is surprising to me to see that with a clutch that was incubated at consistent temperature that was conducive to development. Very interesting biologically, but more importantly very exciting!!! Congrats on your new babies, hope they keep crawling out of those eggs for you!
