Came home to find this cutie waiting for me in the incubator. Less than 12 hours old and looking pretty orange! I cant wait to see how she colors up after her first shed!

Definitely a thrill! These little SHTs are hatching out about 4 days quicker than my Sunglows. Probably the corner of the incubator they're in is a degree or so higher but I've been loving the early surprises!

Thanks! First eggs today from my hyper xanthic bold bandit x mack snow bold stripe pair are looking awesome! 60 days from now I'm gonna be super excited to come home and see those gals!

Now to get this new incubator set up so I have enough space to keep them all!

Yup! That's what SHT means. I'm thinking the bigger one might have spots that stay :)

Here are mom and dad, both from Ohio Gecko:

Beautiful parents and beautiful babies :) The first one looks just like my first one that hatched the other day. I'm thinking she's probably a SHT too. How fast do they start losing the bands?

Thanks! These are my first two SHT hatchlings so I don't know for sure how long it takes but the older one with the reduced banding and spots is 3 weeks old today and looked almost exactly like the black and orange one when she hatched so it must be pretty quick!
