Hatchling doing great, once I get home I'll get a picture up as I got my daughter to take one when my wife removed the membrane that was tight round her shell.
I know they are folded, but this looked like a piece of string had been wrapped round it while it was growing leaving two grooves behind the front legs.
My wife has said that it is less noticeable now, but she looks longer than my usual hatchlings.
Hard to tell properly until I get home.
Dan, yeah I did ask her to give her a good soak at the time to help remove it and all three did not have any yolk sac.
Lynne one of the other ones also had egg shell sticking on top.
I'm glad I work somewhere that has good internet, because I think it would have been harder to help over the phone
Thanks everyone.
Andy
