Hey everyone I just found this in my incubator.. I had a clutch from my male Mack Super Snow Sharpo and my Normal female Zena.. This is the first time I got leopard gecko eggs so I wasn't expecting much from this clutch..

When I opened the incubator I saw one of the 2 eggs hatching!! It scared me at first because it was making alot noise.. it came out really fast and it didn't look right to me at all.. I decided to just leave it alone and see what happens as im not a expert on this and I had no idea what to do..

After about 5 mins it hatched the little gecko died.. :(
I'm really sad because it's rly looking great and it even has black eyes ect..
Heres some pic's I took after it died.. Maybe someone can tell me what this would have turned out to be.. what morph ect.. Anyway I got another egg from this clutch hoping that will hatch today aswell with more luck..

It's sad because this would be like my birthday gift.. im 20 in 9 days and I expected this one to hatch around that time.. But I still got one egg from this clutch so maybe theres still some hope left ;) I'll update this topic if the other one hatch today, thnx guys.

I'm so sorry it didn't make it. It looks like a very pretty Mack snow and from a ss x normal pairing, all of them should be mack snows. I hope the rest of them hatch and survive. I had a day last month where 2 in a row hatched like that and died. The week before 2 out of 3 died shortly after hatching. I know it can be devastating, but I'm glad you have more eggs to hope for.

I'm so very sorry this little sweet creature did not survive. This kind of thing happens, and it feels so tragic when it does. My heart is with you...
