Photo: A BIG sigh of relief...

Well as you all know jabba had eggs and being her 1st batch I figured like most posts said they would be mostly dud lol how wrong was I!!! I did not want to give away any eggs for the worry the ones I did keep would be dead, anyway a couple of days ago I felt I had no choice but to give away some of my axie babies to good and vetted people and get some help with raising my every increasing axie brood!

I am massively relieved to be only left with 25 now and am finding that amount so much easier to deal with!

Its very exciting watching them eat, swim and grow and cant wait for the next stage of legs :happy:

Anyway am also still excited about having digital macro back and am coming more to grips with my new camera so to bore you all here are some better piccies of my babies! (not sure what has happened to photo 6 on this thread but my babies are not squashed like that in the orig pic lol)

its wicked thats for sure!!! my youngest "Ella" 2 dropped our camera months ago and amazingly despite breaking the screen it still worked you just could not use any of the flashy settings lol!

I thought (and don't quote me on this) its their heart (now I am going to get told its their stoamch or something lol)

You can see the stomachs after hey have eaten brine shrimp and they are orange lol!

oooh I LOVE that little wild in the 2nd picture with its big symmetrical yellow circles on his head. so cute hopefully he or she will keep those :happy:

I think you'll find the red spots are their livers. I've had quite a few bubs do the float on their backs trick and you can see their little hearts beating right in the middle of their "chest" just under where their heads join their bodies. All you can see is these tiny red dots moving into and out of the heart. It's very cool to see.
