After two years of trying I'm now officially a grand-dad. I had a random inclination to check the incubator tonight between puttign down my physics book and picking up calculus and spied something a little abnormal- my last surviving egg of the season had magically transformed into a perfectly sweet little spotted monster.
The clutch was laid on July 2 and "he" hatched sometime this week, so just about a 75 day incubation period. Total weight, about 5g. The lineage is Brittany X EvilBastard, so this one is looking like an EvilBastard Jr. to me. This is a Sudanese Uromastyx, uromastyx ocellata ocellata. 
----- uromastyx geyri (Saharan/Nigerian), hardwickii (Indian),
macfadyeni (Somalian), ocellata (Sudanese), ornata (Ornate), benti pseudophilbyi
