Lovely. How much did the small egg hatchling weigh? Have any of the eggs you thought were non-viable surprise you and hatch or are they still in the incubator?

Congratulations on so many successful hatchings.

Goodness, you are going to be very busy, but what a lovely way to keep busy. Well done.

The Small egg

Must be one of my favourite photos. Even my husband smiled and was very taken with it.

Thank you all. The eggs that I thought were not are still incubator. No changes surprised the explosions haven't happened they are at 92 days today. The smallest hatchling weighs just 9g I have another hatchling that is peeking out this evening. Have 3 more that I think are viable will be at 50 days next saturday

Hatchling 24 Has hatched today. I think the last 6 eggs are infertile. I will be giving the incubator a well deserved rest.

Well done on so many fertile eggs successfully hatched. Your incubator has definitely worked hard.
It'd be great to see photos of the hatchlings as and when you have time as you're so busy with the building and landscaping.

Congratulations on what appears your last hatchlings.

Also looking forward to a photo of them all - when you are not building.

How fantastic! Gorgeous little hatchlings.

You must have a will of steel to drag yourself away and work so hard on all your building and gardening as hatchlings are such time wasters. I could watch them for hours. Mind you, even now mine are all older I could still watch them for hours!! Hoping this summer I'll have more time to just sit in the sunshine and do just that.
