I like my job, but home is where the hatching happens....

I checked the incubator before I left for work this morning, this is what I saw. Glad I did work -- it would have been hard to let them alone.

Most of the eggs were pipped, so I pulled them from the vermiculite , windowed them, and put them on damp paper towels. One of them still have alot of yolk, enough to worry me some, but the rest seem very good.

Three of them left the egg when I picked them up. You can see that one of them still has a big yolk belly, but you can't put them back into the egg, can you?
The adults were loaned to me by a friend for breeding. He'll get the picks, of course. Maybe I'll hide the one with semi-striped tail. (Don't worry, I wouldn't do that).
Hope you like the pictures.

Hey,
Awesome photo, and great looking little ones. Are they Borneo's or Sumatran Short-tails? Any how, just dynamite that you were blessed with that little bundle.
