just hatched out my 3rd crested last night (pics)

unfortunately, i lost the one egg about halfway thru incubation...noticed a funny smell, and it hadnt been gaining weight like the other, so i decided to open it up. it was full of yellowish-whitish mush. not too terribly surprising, since it was her first clutch. but the other came out just fine, looks more flame than harly, id say...real nice dorsal stripe, but almost no patterning on the sides and limbs. mom's a real nice harly, but dad's a brick red when he wants to be. let me see if i can get some pics together....

mom and dad on the right when they were sub-adults

head poking thru

and a lateral view

and there are many more eggs that have yet to hatch!

How fun! I have eggs hatching every few weeks now too, and every one is like Christmas morning! Little bitty surprise packages! Congrats!
