Six is still in the egg but looks like it will emerge soon. Seven pipped during the night.

As they hatch I remove them to their own tubs. As FR said, I think there is something about the north east corner of the pan that I can't detect. The pan is in complete darkness in the incubator. Maybe they all want to go to the north east side of the mountain? When I put them in their tubs they all go right into their moist sphagnum moss hides. Like they are seeking a humid cool place to prepare for their first shed. So maybe they have some sort of GPS that tells them where the best direction to find those conditions is?

Thank You all for the kind words!
