yeah, they are hard to see in person...lol
i will not be trying to raise this clutch, as thy will likely eat them before they hatch.
i am going to let them eat the first few... but after that, they should be ready to go.. (yes this is normal..lol)

That'll be really cool to actually have a batch hatch....then I'm sure it will either be keep them or sell them to LFS for credit?
