I will see if I can get a better picture later but you can definitely see two embryos.

Great picture it will be very interesting to follow their development.

Great picture Gordon, I wonder if there has been triplet torts?

Gordon 05-05-2021 02:35 PM

I have heard of triplets before and all three survived. I think i remember someone a few years back hatch three red foots and all did ok, two were a good size and one small one so yes it can happen.

Great picture Gordon. I hope they do well.

How exciting, Gordon. Really hope they both develop without complications.

Did it hatch?

Gordon 12-07-2021 08:21 AM

No they didn't go much further than the picture but to be honest thats what I was expecting.
I'm sure one of my lot will do twins again so maybe next time :)
