Hip hip horray! I finally got my first pip today!

Well, it's been a very very long morning and day for me. The first little guy finally came out of it's egg shell around 9:30am this morning. He/she has the perfect calm sweet personality that I so love in corns. It's very curious and calm. And I definently say it's a Anery. Around 6:30am there was another little pip sticking it's nose out and when I got up around 3:30PM this afternoon there were two more pips. So now I have three little noses poking out and one fully merged baby.
 
From what I can tell I see another anery, a normal colored baby, and one that's really hard to see well, but it might be a Amel, it's got a lighter/orange/pink looking nose to it.
 
Thank you everyone for the congrats! This is the first time I got this far with incubating eggs, so I am just overjoyed and tinkled pink. I think I might have gotten 1 hr of sleep so it's not easy to sleep when yr as excited as I am about bringing a life into the world. It's amazing , the first little guy/gal is so so so tiny. But it was so cool to hold him when he came all the way out of it's shell, he/she is the pefect little corn snake.

tinkled pink?? LOL
never heard that before :D
 
Kali, it's a expression just another way of saying very thrilled/excited. So now I still only have one fully out of it's eggs, the first little pip of yesturday. The second one is most likely another Anery, the third one looks much more like a normal, the fourth one looks definently like a snow now that I was able to see more of it's head. And another one pipped and it's looking like maybe a normal or another Anery.
 
Here is a pic of baby 1, #2, #3. And a fourth one is about to emerge here shortly. First two pics are of baby 1, and the 3 pic is baby 2, and the last pic is of the snow. I have one that's getting ready to come out soon, it looks to be a normal, and then I also have three more pips.

Thanks, Kali, I have 5 totally out of their eggs now. And 5 pipping that should all be out by tomorrow afternoon/evening. The ones that haven't piped I went ahead and made a slit for. It looks like I might have two ghosts corns that are pipping and another anery and I might have a couple hypos also. I'm going to post pics of the normal that is out and the one I think is a hypo as well.
 
Wait a min, I messed up a little. This is what I have/could have...out of shell completly...Two anerys, one snow, one normal, and one that might be hypo. The 5 that have noses sticking out are two possible ghost, one amel, one anery, and another possible hypo.
 
One of the ghost emerged tonght by suprise. He/she is so pretty. The first little anery weighs 6 grams, the snow corn weighs 7 grams, and the second anery weighs 8 grams, my normal weighs 5 grams and my possible hypo weighs 6 grams. And my ghost corn weighs 5-6 grams.
 
Well, actually that last ghost corn got 3/4 of the way out, and I openedd up the container and it went flying backwards, right back in it's egg.
 
Pics and more pics....

Here are pictures, of baby number 4-normal, baby number 5 oossible hypo and baby 6 ghost. And the one I think is hypo is a striker, rattler. He/she is the only one so far to come out with an attitude.

Love the hypo!

You have to restrain from bothering them so they won't get back into their eggs, it will only take longer than you know :p
 
Yeah, it's so hard not to watch them. The second ghost corn finally came out and the other anery prematurely came out of it's egg....:( and has something pinkish hanging out of his or hers private area. It seems to be doing ok for now, but not sure what to do for him/her as far as put it in a moist damp container or a dry container, not sure exactly whats hanging out, scared it might be it's private part? My damn camera ran out of batteries soo I will have to wait until they charge and until I get up out of bed to take pics of it to ost on here.
