As I mentioned in a previous post, Jacinta laid 4 egg clutches.

August 28, 2 eggs.
September 21, 1 egg (broken).
October 16, 14 eggs.
November 12, 10 eggs.

The first hatchling of the first clutch was born January 1st (126 days). The second one of that clutch was not fertile.

Today the first hatchling of the fourth clutch was born (106 days).

A second one of this same clutch is about to hatch. It could be tomorrow or in a couple of days.

Nevertheless, there are no hatchlings from the third clutch (133 days). I think that at some point, the embryos died; which is weird because there are hatchlings from the first and fourth clutch.

Any thoughts?

Here are the pics. Second one, both of them and the third one conning.
Note the 2 months difference between the hatchlings.

Best regards to all.

Awww, I didn't have a lot of luck hatching little ones. I did get a few though. Soooo much fun, seeing those tiny little cuties hatch out
Hope the rest hatch. Good luck.
