Waiting for more picks and the rest to hatch...
|
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE!
Holy cow, the wait is driving me crazy! It's taking all my power NOT to peek in that rubbermaid every 5 minutes. I don't want to expose the eggs to too much light or accidental movements, but I also don't want to miss any of these little buggers hatching either. I've limited myself to a quick look in the morning and once in the evening.
Thanks for the tips Wuntu and DNA! I had read that sometimes it does take a few days to a few weeks for the entire clutch to go, but I guess I was hoping it would all happen at once. Alas not. At last check this morning, the rest of the eggs still look good. It's funny, the egg she hatched out of was the crappiest looking one of the bunch all the way through. It was always wrinkled and had a little bit of mold on it, but I knew there was possibly something in there and I didn't give up on that particular one. Any thoughts on why that one hatched first or is most likely just a coincidence?
Thanks for the kind words everyone! You can bet there will be more pics when the rest finally do hatch.
Cheers!
Trace

maybe the packed in lunch supply ran out for her quicker in her shriveled egg? Or maybe the mold stole some of the surface area for gas exchange?
Just some ideas.

ARGH!!!!!!!!!
This is driving me absolutely (insert curse word here) crazy! I've been VERY patient all (insert curse word here) summer. Now that one has hatched, I want the (insert curse word here) others to go. I just candled the eggs, which I know is bad, and they still look good. In fact, I can see little chameleons inside some of the eggs and they are moving about, curling their tails, and the like. Maybe tomorrow? I (insert curse word here) hope so! One egg actually looks slightly wet, for lack of a better word. Maybe that one will start sweating and hatch overnight. I (insert curse word here) hope so! Ah well. I'm re-learning the art of patience this week.
On a positive note though, my little girl ate her first bug today! I'm very proud. Of course she picked one of the larger crickets to eat and had a bit of a hard time chewing/swallowing that one, but she got it down. I'm sure that one bug filled her right up she's so small. What I also find terribly interesting about her, is acts JUST like my adults. She has her morning stretch, her morning yawn, she leans to one side or the other and basks, all that jazz. Except on a much smaller scale! It's amazing that these little creatures have the instincts to survive.
Here's a better pic of "Thanksgiving Girl". (I really need to think of a better name!)
Cheers!
Trace

This isn't your first clutch of veileds, is it? For one so hopelessly hooked on chams you're going to need far more patience in the future. I've had clutches of pardalis and verrucosus that took over a year to hatch!

That's so weird how they have essentially no casque when they're hatchlings. She's a cutie Trace.

No actually, these eggs are from Bacchanal and Jadoo. C.J. and Jadoo are breeding as we speak (type?) though. (insert cheesy porn music here) Bow chicka bow wow.
I might as well give a small update for the people who have been following my trails. The egg that looked kind of wet last night, did, in fact, hatch for me this morning. I have another little girl! Her egg sac is still attached to her, so I've got her set up in a small critter keeper until it absorbed. She's doing fine so far. Here's a few pics of "Saturday Girl":
I've got one egg that just pipped late this afternoon and should hopefully be out sometime this evening and few of the eggs have collapsed now, so hopefully they will be out sooner or later.
Cheers!
Trace
