After watching my female boxie lay eggs back in June, this afternoon at 1 p.m. the first of four eggs cracked open and a head and 1 foot came out. It's been 3 and a half hours and nothing has changed yet. I incubated them at 82 degrees and 75 days would be the end of August. I have never done this before so maybe you could answer a few questions. Like how long does it take for a baby to come out and will the others be close behind? Could this be an isolated new one and the others later on I’ve read some of the links but don’t recall any specifics on these questions. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Alan

Will keep posted on progress and post fantastic photos later
