[JK47]

WE HAVE EGGS!!!
But not the dreaded task of getting em out!
Very nervous as last time he leapt out of pond past my head, so more measures will b put in place to prevent that happening again.

Will update on how we get on... wish us luck!

Congrats Dan!!! No small feat

Dan, you are the Man! How old are they and how long have they been a pair?

 

[DanHOB]

32 eggs, and unfortunately some damaged in the process.
Dad is stressed from ordeal. But I’m sure he’ll be fine.
Phew, that was stressful!

Freakin Awesome! Glad all went well, now how long before the eggs hatch?

 

[DanHOB]

Thanks!!
Think around the 30 day mark
It’s amazing u can actually see the transparent egg shell n the yellow inside not quite filled to the top.
Trying to get this incubator aerating the the eggs.

Sorry was well distracted when I msgd u bk earlier, they don’t hatch, the aro sort of grows on the egg, and the egg feeds it, and at around 50 days they should be about ready to feed themselves.
