So about two weeks ago the egg on the right "gooed" out and since it's attached to the other egg I couldn't remove it... The "goo" began growing white mold on it last week and it made me nervous, but I decided not to muck with it as not to damage the other egg...
As you can see a baby hatched out of it!
I went to check if the clutch mate hatched this morning and found another Snow Bell in the container! To my surprise it wasn't from the attached egg...
All of these eggs are from the same female...
The miracle baby is half the size of the one that hatched today (MB hatched yesterday) which can be seen in these pics...
MB is on the left and today's is on the right...
11/6 Snow Bell, 11/11 Snow Bell and MB...
Pretty interesting that the baby survived and continued to develop although it's egg had opened up... I'm even more shocked because it's out like 12-14 days early, but in good health and not underdeveloped (aside from it's size)... I'm very grateful for that!
