When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

Yours are doing better than mine.  I get lots of white eggs that drop off the cone from this male.  I still have lost of good eggs left.  I'm wanting to see what things look like in the morning.  Most of my good eggs get eaten during the second night, the rest during the third night.

I want yours to do right more than I want mine to.  They are your only HB pair.  I have choices.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Well, they're cleaning up the whities that decided to show up this afternoon....bunch left tho, so it'll be interesting to see if they pass 'muster' with them....??

Good luck with them. My HB Superveils never could parent raise so I now have wigglers in a 1 gallon jar about to free swim this weekend.

Thanks, George........there aren't many left, so next time is their last crack at it...then I'm pulling the leaf.....if I get antsy, then I'll just pull the next one and then they can try some more later.... ;D

I had to finally pull the slate myself after giving them most of the summer to raise them. Since it is my only pair it was time to try and raise them myself. Baby brine is ready to feed and egg yolk powder just in case not all can eat bbs

Did you get any wigglers this time, Jon.  My pair had about 25 that mom moved yesterday afternoon.  I figured they'd be gone this morning but they're still there.

A few wigglers here, but lost in the move, I guess..??  they're clumsy in amongst the anubias leaves...I may try a cone in there???...they don't seem too like the slate much...but first off, I'm yanking the next one to see if I can get at least a spawn to play with....

My pair still has their few wigglers.  Mom has moved them three times now, from the front of the cone to the top of the cone to the back of the cone and now back to the front of the cone.
