Well, my first year with tort eggs. I had two that were fertile and they hatched yesterday! I now have two babie Russian torts. I started out with a hovobator but did not like the temp fluctuations. I made my own incubator out of a wine fridge and it held temps perfectly.
I will weigh the babies today. One had a oblong egg, really looked weird. The baby looks weird to but I am hoping it will straighten out. The other was a really tiny egg but the baby looks fairly normal. I am excited!

Congrats. They are just getting started. The next few years will be even more eggciting!

You're so lucky! I've been trying for years to get babies from my 1.3 group. Nothing so far. Congrats to you!!
