I was too busy getting them all settled in, but I have a few pictures now. No more babies, and mama Fluke just devowered a plate of egg. She's very protective of her babies.

Thanks everyone. We seem to have stopped at 10 babies. No complaints :) I took some more pictures of the new arrivals, but I've lost track of which picture is for which baby.

No guarantees these will be dark. One of the possible fathers is Jenga, who's a caramel. But ya, so far they're all looking pretty classic.

Everyone looks great! I must ask though, what are those hides? Look very nice and disposable?

Many thanks everyone. I'll definitely get better pictures in a few days. It's so hard to leave them be right now. And I can't stop checking the maternity tanks.

The hides are actually food dishes that I bought for the adults. I ran out of TP rolls, so I cut holes in the food dishes. They're working great, and they're dirt cheap. They're the kind you buy in bulk if you were serving food at a hotdog stand or such. They make life so much easier because I can just toss them after each meal.
