Just hatched out these two little girls tonight. TWINS!!! These two cuties came out of the same egg. I was beyond shocked to see this and checked the other egg of the clutch to be sure (pics of it attached). I'm still in shock that something so rare could happen and I get to be the one blessed with watching them grow. [emoji3]

They are only my 3rd egg to ever hatch, but I am sure they will always remain one of the coolest hatches I will ever have!

I definitely will keep everyone posted! I am very excited about these two! My mind is still blown. [emoji3]

I weighed them this morning and the smaller one (white face, 3 back bands) was 2.2g. The larger one (4 back bands) was 2.4g. I have heard that the smaller one often perishes due to its smaller size and being unhealthy. I am hopeful they both make it, since both are healthy and active. Squirt wasn't much bigger and she is thriving. [emoji3]

Thanks everyone! They are doing well. They've both made it through 2 sheds. Scarlet is bigger than Gracie. She has moved on to mealworms while Gracie still will only eat dubia nymphs. They are both active and curious, and very accepting of being held now.

I got a new camera so once I figure it out I will post updated pics. Besides pics of just them, I will post a pic of them with their clutchmate Carmen also. You can kinda get a size comparison to a normal Leo hatchling. She is about twice the size of Gracie and a day younger.
