I don't know if any of you remember about a month ago I found 7 eggs in my cresties tank. I didn't think they were even laying eggs so it was quite a surprise. I guess they had been in the hide for a while. lol, cuz this is what I found tonight at 11 pm.

She, or he, is now out and housed in a small critter keeper with some fake plants and moist papertowel.
I read that I shouldn't expect her to eat for at least a couple days but now I'm going to be nervous for the first little bit. I don't know if she has a sibling coming as well or if she was a lone egg. I have 3 females and all of them are first year breeders. 2 already laid abot 4 eggs before I got them so I thought they were done laying as I heard cresties dont' usually lay many eggs their first year. Surprise to me. I also found 2 more eggs Monday and I believe another female is going to lay soon, she was in the hide yesterday checking things out.
I'll post more picks later if I get time, but right now I'm trying to leave the little one alone as much as possible. Thanks for looking.
