The easiest way to post multiple pics is to do it with Tapatalk. Then (if you're a contributor!) you can go back and edit and add text, etc.

Also there's a way to embed youtube videos. Instead of linking.
 
What day did they pip on? Mine are on 56. I usually have slits at 62-66. A long time to go, still.

Congrats on the cuties!!

As always, thank you Nanci!! (Only problem is time, as I am busier than a one-legged man in an ass-kickin' contest!).

But I guess being busy is a "good problem," no? :p

Also have to make sure that Tapatalk doesn't conflict with anything else on my phone. Probably not, but it's all just like trying to catch a fart in a rain barrel, don't ya think??? :crazy01:

Oh well, on my way to deal with a bunch of angry drug addicts (I facilitate a Tuesday morning support group at a Methadone program in East Flatbush). Fun Fun Fun!! :nyah: After four more days I'll be RACING to make a few jumps out of a plane from 14,500 feet!!! This Saturday, weather permitting, The Bipolar Express (name of our skydiving club) will ride again!! If I'm real lucky, I MAY hit jump #500 by this weekend!!!! (I have 493 as of now!!!)

Actually on the 51st day, the first two! One more today, that makes 52 for him, but 14 more aren't yet breached. One looks like a goner (the one that was circling the drain since the first couple weeks!), but I'm hoping I won't lose all of them.

How long after the first one hatches can the others still take? (I know, I know, patience! But as I might've mentioned earlier, it's like leaving the key under the mat for Amelia Earhart!!)
 
Looks like I'm late to the party! They are adorable, Axis. Looks like you will have your hands full the next few days.

Better late than never!!

But yes! They are cute, the little wormy-looking noodles!!!

I do hope you're right about me having my hands full, as the little critters have, all of a sudden, just decided to stop pipping, or popping! Kinda eerie, as the ones that hatched now retreat into their makeshift hides to rest, and the one who stuck up its muzzle through the shell of an egg just froze there! And the remaining 14 eggs just sit there glistening but very still. (Waiting for an "Alien" moment??). Nahh! I just hope the rest of the brood are OK!

Hope I have some great news in the morning!!!! Then again, I SHOULD be thankful for what I've got!!
 
I love the YouTube, Axis. It's funny, but newborn puppies follow their noses and pipping snakes flick their tongues like it's going out of style, lol.

I'll be thinking of you and the hatching ones. Hang in there and don't forget to breathe!
 
#3 still sitting there!

Maybe he's bashful??

Thanx Dollysmom!!

Glad you liked it! Cute beyond words! When they come out of their eggs, they behave JUST like other babies (i.e., puppies, kittens, etc) in that they are just so goofy and curious!!! Have to fight the urge to cuddle or handle them immediately!!!

Well, I know YOU know what I mean!

We'll see what the morning brings!!!
 
Hey! Congratulations!!! Doing a little happy dance here for you... you know... on the inside. Can't actually type and dance at the same time. Well, I HAVE done it before, but it resulted in a lot of spelling errors. lol

Thanx Albertagirl!!

I understand how difficult poly-phasic activity can be! I once read that it was impossible to sneeze with your eyes open and I have NOT been able to refute that but it's kinda difficult to believe that if ever DOES happen that your eyes can pop outta your head!! (Or how about farting & sneezing simultaneously? However, DON'T attempt this as I can assure you that you will be cleaning much more of the house than you planned to!!).

However, me and my little sneaky ones do appreciate the happy dance!! :dancer::dancer::dancer:
