Gambian Spotted-Eye Hatchlings! (Video)

[Precarious]

First ootheca hatched! 16 nymphs emerged.

They were orange-ish, cream colored, but turned darker over the following days.

Both color schemes in the video.

They jump around like fleas! Sometimes they jump straight up and come back down in the same spot. Too cute...

More ooths incubating. I'll have some nymphs to sell.

Won't be for sale till they reach L2 but I will reserve if anyone is interested.

I have tons of footage of the adults that I'll post when the nymphs are ready to ship.

I really dig the music too! Great footage! Little tiny ones are always so difficult to get good macro shots of. And I totally want some babies!

The footage of the fresh hatchlings is all shaky because I had nothing in my gut but coffee! I try not to shoot in the morning before I've eaten but I was too excited to wait. :lol:
