Thanks everyone, they are a bit special, although I feel that they were kind of 2 eggs that got their shells fused into 1 somehow, it is a relief that they got through the hatching stage.
I am still slightly concerned by Tac as there seems to be a little blob of yolk that didnt et in before the hole sealed over (well that is the best way I can describe it!) it is really tiny but it is delaying me getting her onto soil, I may need to post a pic for advise tomorrow.

Oh that is good to know, thanks

I will still post a pic tomorrow as it may be helpful for others to see.

That's good news Alley. You must be so proud to have successfully hatched twins.

Thanks Kelly, I posted the picture then dashed out and now i have come back there is a tiny bit of a blood trail in the container, do you think i should hold off putting her onto soil now?
