Ahhh, yes, you were so very right Rusty, many many thanks for pointing that out.



After changing the batteries of my digital scales, I’m getting totally different weights for the neonates, which throws into doubt the weight of the eggs at laying, as I don’t know how long the batteries were running low. I’ve changed the batteries twice and weighed three of the hatchlings again and thankfully, I’m getting the same measurements as the revised ones that follow;

Scal bab 1 – Egg (egg no.1) weight 28g(?), hatchling weight 19g, length 29cm.

Scal bab 2 – Egg (egg no.8) weight 31g(?), hatchling weight 23g, length 30cm.

Scal bab 3 – Egg (egg no.10) weight 31g(?), hatchling weight 19g, length 30cm.

Scal bab 4 – Egg (egg no.6) weight 29g(?), hatchling weight 22g, length 28cm.

Scal bab 5 – Egg (egg no.3) weight 30g(?), hatchling weight 22g, length 29cm.

Scal bab 6 – Egg (egg no.5) weight 32g(?), hatchling weight 24g, length 32cm.
