First breath

[GeckoJosh]

Hey,
I caught this special moment with a Golden-tailed gecko this morn, it only take them less than an hour usually to hatch so I rarely catch them in the act.

Feel free to add your own hatching pics

Cheers Josh

LOL dude, that would be its head

Took me awhile to figure the first pic out, but I got it, its it head with its eye just below the strip of shell, right.

 

[HonestPirate]

they eye is kinda got that strip of shell sorta over it a bit kinda..


oh yeah I make so much sense that Julia Gillard's tut-tutting.

 

[crocdoc]

One of these is not like the others...

 

[ianinoz]

That would be a very special moment to experience. (You must be stoked about seeing the moment the baby hatched).

 

[Fang101]

Great pics crocdoc, would have been exciting to watch.

 

[vampstorso]

yeah I see now...the shell sort of looked like it was the substrate, and hence it sort of looked like a fish tail, and beyond that I was sort of looking at it the wrong way around (as if the head was looking in the opposite direction),

now it's very clear too me.

Watching eggs of any species hatch never gets old.

I agree, each egg hatching has me acting like a kid on xmas morning

 

[BurtonReptiles]

[GeckoJosh]

Naw he has a friend

 

[Sezzzzzzzzz]

[sammy09]

NICE, the baby's are looking cute

 

[saximus]

Hehe they're all amazing. I am always surprised by how big they seem compared to the eggs. It must be rather cramped by the end
