Due to the storm, the babies didn't get to go outside today. So I just snapped a few pics of them just now before bed time. I can't get over their little red throats!
I'm looking at this last photo compared to the first ones I took of baby #1 and their little faces are already longer! I was just talking today with a co-worker about how their eye balls are like 95% of their entire head, and look, that's not going to be true for too much longer.
I tell you, the people who are getting these babies cannot complain that they don't know how these guys were raised lol. Not with all these multi-weekly updates on them.

Wow, beautiful picture! What a wonderful time it is when the little ones start hatching after such a long wait! Happy for you

And we got our wish! Today was a beautiful day in the high 70's with a nice breeze so the babies got to spend all day outside. They had access to shade but, as panthers often do, they decided they preferred to spend most of their time in the sunniest spots they could. They're currently a little mad at me because I got them hooked on large pin heads and now fruit flies and newly-hatched pinheads are too "dinky." So I get the stink eye when they see that they aren't on the menu (until the pinheads grow a little, obviously.)

Thank you!

It's a little Canon EOS Rebel XS with the standard 18-55mm IS Lens that comes with it. I will admit, I take maybe 30 photos each time and pick only 9 that are clear or semi-clear enough, as it's SO hard to get the face of something so tiny in focus. I achieve it a couple times here and there though! lol
Shine on me!!
I know, they're so cute! They do love their sunshine!

Ha thanks! It is hard though, it's not the best camera for macro anything. I still can't get good shots of the Bradys though, the panthers pose for the camera way more!
Thanks!
Thank you!

They might be growing, but they are still tiny baby chams! Great thread, you are clearly doing a brilliant job with them - I hope I can raise my babies like this........

Baby #1 is 1 month old this weekend, and the others will follow this week. I have introduced tiny roach nymphs to their diet so I feel like they should start growing more dramatically in the coming weeks.
The weather has been phenomenal during the day so nearly everyone is crammed outside on the balcony enjoying full days of sunshine.
