My hands are shaking, my heart is racing, and I've never seen anything more beautiful

[Zoe]

My first egg hatched today at about 2pm! He's still hiding out in his egg - isn't ready to come out yet, so I'm trying not to bug him too much.

But here is a half-decent pic of him I took earlier today:

Thanks for the kind words everyone :]
I am very, very pleased with this gorgeous, perfect little snake. He is still chillin in his egg, but sometimes he comes partway out and takes a look around. I can't wait till the rest hatch, but this little fella will always be my favourite!

Congrads on the new additions. That is so sweet! I love it when everything works out. Way to go.

[Katt]

Are these your first eggs Zoe?

Mark what egg he is, and keep him. The first snake you ever hatched.

[JKUROSKI]

See you could have pipped that one...lol.

I pipped this one at day 54...almost ready (small yolk sack)

Guess you don't have to worry about it now. Couple days and the yolk will be taken in and out it will slither.

Just think you be doing this soon!
