Hi Claire what exciting news. Think his leg looks OK. Hope all well with you. xx

Yippee!! Congratulations!

thank you !!! He is still surviving the shell extraction - seems to be reversing out. Im a bit worried he will exhaust himself without getting clear of the shell...its been 27 hours...loving the shell imprint on his carapace ! E.T was on last night - Extra Tortoise was suggested ! E.T

They can take a while to come out but he looks fine. If you think he's a bit stuck you could just give a light misting to help him ease himself out. It is always amazing how small Marginated hatchlings are despite having large parents!

Thank you Mary, i did ! and he is OUT OUT ! He walked around in a circle and then has gone back inside his shell again. He is the tiniest tortoise, like you say as a Marginated. He has been sleeping all afternoon, so may turn the lights out at 4 at usual , but maybe I should bathe first?
He is only in a kasabi chinese take away box placed near a second lamp in the others pen ...99 days ! I turned lights out every night, and some nights were bit cold and I only used coco coir and some stones - I still can not believe he has hatched what a shock I got yesterday. https://i.imgur.com/Lq0czPEl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/lWFV6Til.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oazyz5Ol.jpg |
He looks fine is this Beau's first baby?

All looks good Claire and now you have started incubating where will it end.:)

So amazing Clare, congratulations!
