Hi All,



Here are my just hatched dione. Something terrible happend and from 6 eggs (5 good), only 2 "good" hatchlings hatched. One was dead in the egg and the other two where heavily deformed so I had to euthenise them .. so bad.



All pics where taken a few hours after hatching, so their true colors will be much brighter.



BUT: 1 orange hacthed! And he is fine! The other is a female.



Have a look:



This one is a very nice orange male, he will turn out more oraneg each shed:











This is the good female, she is for Sue:





This one also a female, she is for Sue:





And together:





This are the deformed babies, the first one, a female and rely nice:

















The second one, a male:









This one was dead in the egg:





Thanks for watching!



Best regards,

Gidi
