Your Mum will be great, she loves them

Away on the 8th july, only over night but won't get back till late. I'm wondering, once they've hatched do they just sit there for a while or are they active stragiht away...What if one has a bidg egg sac?? Oh dear, that's why I can't get too excited, too many variables
