Excellent, did you notice the egg sweating before they hatched about a day before? I noticed this. My next batch should hatch around October 5-9th somewhere in that area, and then another batch around Christmas.......CHeers. You've done well........

I found the hatchlings don't eat for about three days or so. They stay under the dirt a lot and then fimally come out. I fed mine small crickets, not pin heads but real small like 1/4 inch
and also very very small wax worms if you have any, don't feed them mealworms unless they are fresh shed.....and very small.

I have mine in a large plastic tub with a 1 x 4 across the top with a UVB flouescent/ 100 watt basking bulb atached to it, off the top of the substrate. Because plastic holds heat, this seems to work pretty well, a word of cuation do not mix your babies with medium size or adults as they are cannabalistic and will eat them....You'll have to raise them up before you consider mixing them......or that would be prudent based upon our observations........
