Thanks Doyle. I'm really impressed with the normals...I can't wait to see what their color looks like after the shed. I really hope they keep that really silver backing.

Thanks you two! I'm extremely happy with them as well. The parents did a great job! Not only was it MY very first clutch, but it was also the parents' first time breeding! Looks like the mom and dad are very good breeders! Mom ate within a few days of laying her eggs and has been chowing down like crazy since. Even when she was gravvid she was chowing down on her food no problem. Same with the dad, though obviously he didn't have to lay them!

Just an update! Two have shed so far, and one of the two has had his first meal! First attempt at feeding tonight was them being put into a deli cup with a f/t mouse ( my female pregnant mouse decided to eat her babies when they were born..so I have to go hunting for more female pregnant mice or newborn pinks..)... Second attempt, I put them both back in their regular containers with the pinks and left the room. Turns out my female leopard gecko was shedding, so I stole most of her skin (left her some to eat if she wished to), and went back into the room to store it - only to find out the normal was almost done eating his first f/t pink! The amel was ignoring hers...so just in case I went ahead and covered the f/t in part of the leopard gecko skin...and left the room again. I haven't been back to check yet, but these are some shots I took prior to moving them into their containers.
The normal who ate his pinky once I moved him back into his regular container.
Best pic I could get of the amel.
I apologize for the not so great quality of my camera. I'm still trying to fix it...all my other pictures were taken by my phone. My actual camera drowned during a camping trip and hasn't been right since.
The normal. He ate his pinky afterwards with no problem. =)

Thanks Airidies. I posted up a pick (above) of one who shed already =). Last night it looked like almost all of them ahve had their first sheds now, except for I think three (will recount when I go in to try a first feeding)..
The normals are absolutely stunning. Vibrant silver backgrounds with deep burnt red saddles...some look so much like aneries but I know they're not.
Amel refused that night, so I'll be trying all of them again (the ones who recently shed) once more on f/t to see what happens. Once I get a count of who all eats f/t, then I'll go to live for the remainder.

Five out of 15 have eaten f/t so far! Got another day or so and then I'll be feeding the other 10 live. =)
And some more after-shed pictures. Best ones I could pick out since my camera is now not working - so when I get a chance, I'll take the ones I can outside to do some photos with my phone.
(this one had just eaten)
I apologize if any were duplicated. But these are ALL after shed pictures. As I said, will try to get more later.
I'm really liking these guys though. THe normals are stunning..and all the amels seem to have that interesting saddle/marking thing going on.

From one Rami to another.. BIG congrats!! Cannot wait to see more updates on these cuties!
Haha, thanks Rami!
I'm deciding whether or not to keep photo's here or start a second thread. I just took a bunch of pics outdoors today of those who have eaten so I'm not sure. xD
