Yes! These are bantam lavender Ameraucanas, the breeder did say they have a tendency to hatch early. I thought about setting them 12 hours after the others but then talked myself out if it

I'm very glad to hear that, but I think you would've done very well on your own; you're an excellent plant mum! As for lithops, their care is pretty straightforward, it's all in the seasons! They flower sometime during autumn, when I see the flowers I stop the water, unless the plant is very shrivelled up. From winter into spring, they will shed their old "skin", during this time provide no water, as the roots have gone doormant. Rain (as is my case) can be deadly this time of year. Once completely done with shedding, I wait a couple of weeks and water for the first time. From that point on, I water whenever the plant tells me, trying not to go overboard, as these guys can very easily overwater. Here is one of mine in flowerView attachment 3749153
