Hey guys,
I'm getting a little worried about the rest of my clutch. The first big, healthy baby made a grand entrance yesterday (His hatch was quite energetic!) It's been nearly 24 hours since the first baby hatched, and we're not seeing any since of life from the other eggs. They are all dented, and there hasn't been any major disturbance to them (ie-temp fluctuations, etc....) When should I be worried by? These eggs were candled a few days ago, and there was movement and obvious life inside. I don't know if I'm being paranoid, I hope I am. Is there such a thing as an early bird that hatches a few days earlier than all the rest? But, they are all quite heavily dented. Anyway, if I'm being manic, sorry, this is just my first clutch of anything, and I feel like a fretful grandmother. Any info would be very helpful....thanks again guys...you're always such a huge help.
Jess.
