Yeah, the male isn't QUITE a Darth Vader, so I named him Anakin. He's finally got the hang of guarding, and has stopped running around like a ninny. I'm curious to see what the 16th-17 will bring.

Dangit, she kicked them out permanently yesterday. She had been unhappy with one the past few days. Not sure if she decided it wasn't time to sit afterall (freakin' December!) or if she could tell the eggs stopped developing.

That said, I do know what the offspring look like, because I have hatched (and sold) some artificially before. I'll include pics of those youngsters as a consolation prize. Maybe she will sit and hatch naturally next spring.
