Tonight marks a big first for me.
A baby Bowsprit or Angulate tortoise (Chersina angulata) hatched here. I haven't been working with this species too long but we've gone through several attempts to get the eggs to develop or hatch and finally, it's happened. Thanks to friends at the Turtle Conservancy for helping me figure this one out. I didn't want to disturb the little one much so here's a decent pic of it just about all the way out. Enjoy and share.
