Hello all,
I thought since the baby mellers are 2 months old now, I'd give a little update and post a few pics I took today.
You can compare with the old pics on the old thread here:

I'm happy to report that all 32 are going strong. I guess it's hard to tell from the pics, but they've put on about an inch in length since hatching and are about 5 inches now. They are definately filling out the last 2 weeks or so- they are starting to loose that hatchling look. Their nose horns have started to stretch out a little the last couple of weeks too. (Maybe the one I picked out to photograph wasn't the best to show the nose horn- some seem a little more obvious than this one).
The rascal I was trying to photograph kept curling his tail up, but I got one pretty good shot of him stretched out on the palm of my hand.
These have done really well and I am still thinking end of april early may they will be ready to go out to new homes. I'm gonna have a hard time choosing the ones for myself. But I don't mind the hardship
