It must get very cramped in there, so this guy's decided to stretch a leg.

Congrats mate,

so I guess the denting wasn't all that premature after all?? Nice looking baby. Have any of the others begun to slit yet? My next clutch is nearing hatching time, I hope everything goes as well as yours... not holding my breath though... as we all know, I'm mighty good at killing healthy eggs... hahaha..

Cheers mate, and once again, Congrats. I look forward to seeing some more pics in the days to come.

Thanks, guys.

Tim, it pipped on day 212. Bob, the one that is really early is from the third clutch. It was as dented as this one yet was laid almost three months later. It's being incubated at 1C warmer, which would account for an earlier hatch time (of around 30-40 days), but it is still a bit early.

Coincidentally, both of these eggs had a small (size of a Canadian quarter) patch of black mould on the underside, probably something from my nesting substrate stuck on the egg.

Forgot to add, the above photo was taken this morning, a little over an hour ago before I left for work. I hope I didn't give the poor animal cold shock when I opened the egg box to take this photo, as it was the coldest morning so far this winter and even in my home it was chilly.

Excellent work Crocdoc!!
What species is that? It looks like a salvator but the banding on the back looks a little unique.
