The one that lived

[unknownclown]

well I took a pic of him this morning when I checked on him... not sure if he will make it thru the night though. When I got home tonight I checked on him again and he was upside down. I turned him rightside up so I know he is still alive. Im really hoping he is just confused but well you know...

[stephanbakir]

Best of luck man.

[Uncle_Rev]

Keeping my fingers crossed for your little guy!

[SSSSnakes]

If eggs are over heated and the babies are hatched, they normally only liver for a few days. I know a lot of breeders that found this out the hard way. Sorry about your loss.

[Gungirl]

Aww fingers crossed for this little guy!!

[unknownclown]

Checked on him this mornin still alive and right side up. I'm tryin not to get too hopeful but its hard not to.

[lady_bug87]

aww hang in there, has it eaten?

[blindfireak40]

It's only a couple days old, still has a little before eating enters the picture...that'll be the next big test though!! :) Glad to hear things are going alright! Here's hoping!

[millertime89]

cute little guy, hope he makes it!

[UwabamiReptiles]

Good luck, hope he pulls through for you.

[bladeblaster]

there is always hope :)

[blindfireak40]

How's he doin?

[unknownclown]

Still alive when I checked this morning. I held him for a sec to see if he could correct himself when turned upside-down.. nope he is still a bit weak

[blindfireak40]

Did he make it through another night??

[Kayla90]

Awe that is so sad, I definitely hope he makes it. Maybe he is a fighter. Definitely keep us up to date though, how is he doing now?

[unknownclown]

Still alive but still has a hard time correcting his self. He hasn't shed yet although I'm sure that will be comin up soon. I'm just praying he eats when its time.

[blindfireak40]

Well at least he's made it this far!! Good luck, little buddy!! :)

[redsided]

Update? How's he doin'?

[alessia55]

I'm new to the forum ... what happened to this little guy? Why isn't he doing well?

[millertime89]

his cat decided to turn up the thermostat on the incubator a few days prior to hatching. This is the only one that was still alive when he opened the eggs.

[unknownclown]

As tacky and typical as it may be my hubby and daughter want to call him Lucky

[unknownclown]

[lady_bug87]

I would name him Champ.... or slugger,

[blindfireak40]

I like the sounds of Roast hahaha...others in the same vein: Barbecue, Omelette, Half-Baked, etc. :yes:

Suitable names:

CHANTICO -In Aztec mythology, Chantico ("she who dwells in the house") was the goddess of fires in the family hearth and volcanoes. She broke a fast by eating paprika with roasted fish, and was turned into a dog by Tonacatecuhtli. She also wears a crown of poisonous cactus spikes, and takes the form of a red serpent.

COATLICUE- The word "Coatlicue" is Nahuatl for "the one with the skirt of serpents". She is referred to by the epithets "Mother Goddess of the Earth who gives birth to all celestial things", "Goddess of Fire and Fertility", "Goddess of Life, Death and Rebirth" and "Mother of the Southern Stars".

And here's my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!!

APEP- One legend said that Bastet cat god accompanied the Sun god Ra'sheat boat for a million years on it's daily journey through the sky, and at night she fought Ra's enemy, the serpent Apep!!

your version: so one night Bastet and Ra got together and cooked everyone but Apep!!

Apep is just too perfect!! Snakefood, one of your other hobbies is mythology, innit? It's so cool how much you know about old mythos and belief systems! :)

[Snakefood]

I love anything historical, the older the better. So ya, I guess mythology is kind of a hobby of mine!!
