So I'm checking to see what the rest of the eggs contain in my clutch that produced my first hybino. I never expected to see this! If it's not apparent in the pic, yes: that's one egg, two heads.

What remains to be seen is whether it's a two-headed snake, or twins. What would you rather it be?

(this is the clutch reported in the thread three or four threads below, titled, "sometimes smart, sometimes lucky". I had NO idea!)

and it gets better: the 3rd and 4th eggs have slit--and they're both hybinos. So a clutch that statistically could be expected to yield one hybino yields three and the fourth egg contains a bonus of some kind.

my wish for each of you: that you also have "good days" like this sometimes. There have been plenty of setbacks and disappointments to offset this.

peace
terry
