Babies!!
#They finally hatched!#I knew it would be soon since they started to turn gray but I wasn't sure how long lol#Sadly they started hatching before I got home so I think two dried out#But the rest are zooming around like it ain't nobody's business!#There's a super small lighter colored one that's so stinking cute#Idk why the second clutch hasn't started hatching out yet though#Hopefully it'll be soon#One snail has made it off the lid and is in the actually aquarium so I'm hoping the rest follow suit soon#I don't wanna dump the clutches into the water of fear the unhatched snails will drown#But idk if that one snail already ate or it still needs to get Calcium#Hopefully it'll be ok#I think tjta one and a second one are already starting to change colors so that's cool!#Or they just have a purple tinge thay I didn't notice before#I'm super excited to see them all and begin analyzing their colors and stuff#I'd be lying if I said I wasn't fascinated by their genetics and ecstatic to have the opportunity to make some observations#This clutch theoretically was from my two yellow snails#But idk if they are carriers for other colors or if paternity can be shared#I have two males and two females so there could've been some crossing going on#Right now though I'm just hoping both sides of the clutch will hatch#In trying to get the eggs to a better environment I broke the clutch in half so I was worried if it'd even hatch#They seemed to make it though and I just found two more clutches two days ago#Sadly the first clutch didn't make it cause it fell in the water the day before I moved the aquarium#I incubated both just in case but it didn't do anything so that was disappointing
