the rest of the quad gang

[little leaf]

here a few pics of the rest of Laurie,Kevin and Carl gang
the 2 gravid girls are getting bigger, looking good, the little "bite boy" juvi male is starting to act a bit better, still watching him, he has been "off " for the last 3 days or so - the gracilior's are looking good, but she is SO shy - that was all I could get a pic of on her and the little baby quad female, she is doing very well, she likes her food ! if you do not get in into the feed cup fast enough, she will come out after it all and all, they are doing well, some issues here, and there, and Trooper still hangs in there

Thanks Cheryl, it does cheer me to see how good some of them look. Are you getting excited that you have have to deal with eggs? (evil grin)

EGGCITED I am still hoping the 2 will make it to Kevin & Carl before they go and do something silly - like lay eggs really, I'm good with it if they do

They are looking so much better, glad to see them progressing in the right direction!!!

Those two girls in the first two pics are still looking like they are going to lay before the female I have. With quads though, given the small number of eggs they can lay and how they can "hide" how far along they are, you never know. At least I'll say that they look more "plump" than my girl. I still need names.

By the way, how much do those two weigh now? When they left here, the bigger one had gained 19 grams during the time I had her and the smaller one had gained 15 grams.

Always exciting to have the possibility of getting good eggs. I'll be looking for the good news. Don't worry Cheryl. As I'm sure you know by now, if they do happen to lay while you have them, quad egg incubation is really a cinch, provided the eggs are viable to begin with, you can keep the temps right around 70F, and you use the recommended moisture level for the incubation media used.

From the pics, it looks as if the edemas you mentioned as coming and going are pretty much going away now. Are they? My female's large edema is much, much better now. Thanks for posting updated pics.

They're looking a lot better. May they get better and stronger every day. I love the picture of the one eye peeking from behind the branch.
