One out, waiting on the rest

snakesunlimited1 Jul 11, 2009 09:07 PM

Well some of you will remember I posted X-Rays a while back and then a month or so later my clutch of 21 (14 good, 7 slugs) eggs. Then in short order from that I lost 3 eggs in rapid succession that last having twins inside, don't think I posted much on that part. Well finally I get to reap the rewards and see a little BHP head in person as it makes that push into the world.

Finally one came out over a day later

Finally the ultimate, getting to be the first to hold one of them little gems. She is still all shy and confused about the world around her. Soon she will be a little more aware and a little more snappy.

I have 11 eggs total that all have been opened and all the babies look good. Just got to wait for them all to come on out. I tell you, the first week had me pulling my hair out as I lost an egg every other day. Huge thanks to Derek (are you really the real) Roddy for putting up with all the phone calls and dishing out the great advice. Nothing I didn't know, but tons I was not sure of and having a guy that has success there to say "yup" is priceless!! Thanks bro!!

Now the fun part, getting them to eat.

YEP, those are amazing. I think you need more photos though. And start a new thread already so we don't have to scroll down to see the new pictures.

I say you start single shots once each one sheds!
