Babies are Here!! (plus a question)

[Grizzabella]

My babies are FINALLY hatching... after 7 looonnnggg months of waiting, they've finally arrived! So far we have 16 wonderful and spry little veilds, running around like banshees! Sadly, one of teh little guys has been hangin out in his egg for quite a while, so prognosis seems a little dim for him, but i'll keep everyone posted....
and it looks like we have 10 or so more who will hatch in the next couple of days (hopefully hours!) so they can join their sibs!


hmm and question: one of teh babies, when he hatched (idk if HE is actually a he yet) was red; all teh others were green. He isnt acting any weirder, and seems to be fine, but has anyone ever noticed anythign liek that before? Since hatching he has changed color a few times, and is now green like the others... it just seemed unusual to me

thnx all

Some of the babies will seem purple-their dark color for absorbing heat. Wouldn't it be cool if they stayed that color?
Don't give up hope on the one in the egg-they can stay like that for days sometimes absorbing the yolk sac.
Get the food ready! The little monsters can eat!

no worries, ive got more pin heads and fruit flies than i know what to do with! cant WAIT till they start eating them (most havent done teh post-natal shed yet)!!! I was hoping he would be a weird color mutation, but it doesnt seem to be the case lol!
and for now were just leaving teh little guy in his egg with our fingers crossed...
