Bill, well it looks its just going to be 2 in all.
There is one egg that I haven't quite given up on but I'm not getting my hopes too high. The 2 that hatched are fat! I mean water snake fat!
I've got to get pics posted and really it was probably apropriate on the first post, sorry.

The lucistic black rats are starting to hatch now too and they would be early too going on the date I was told that they hatched.
Talking with my wife today we came to the same conclusion that the eggs were left for some time in the cages before being put in the incubator.
Like the mandarins out of 9 eggs laid for the lucys I'll be lucky to get 4 or 5.
This is the first year I didn't have my hands in all of it and the first year I didn't have a nearly 100% success rate for hatching.
I will definitely plan it better in the future.

Bill, can I ask what incubator or setup you use?
Wish you didn't live so far away, I'd love to drop by and BS with you some.
Mike.
