It is a nice and joyful feeling seeing a newly hatched gecko. I was a little upset that I was out of town for a family dinner to see it hatch, but I have at minimum 3 more eggs of 8 as of now that I know have embyos developing, with the 5th clutch now developing in my female.
I am hoping that this one's clutch mate will hatch, the egg candled as a dud, but hope is on its side.
