Up above is a piccy of our first Mack snow hatchling of the 2010 season. Parents are Maggie (Mack snow) and Mo (normal but interesting). The two previous eggs from this combination produced normals which is in line with the expected 50:50 Mack snow to normal hatchlings when a normal and Mack snow are mated. The baby above weighed in at a chunky 4 gram (note the fat tail)with hatch date being 19/07/2010. With Incubation day was 53 or 54 which is quite short compared to some of our recent hatchlings. In the picture it looks like she has a heart shape on the back of the neck. Most probably that will fade when she starts to pile on the weight.
