Good going..Isn't it a neat surprise to find new eggs, especially Leucs. They are such a hardy species. Mine start calling first thing in the morning when the light comes in and I never get tired of hearing them.

Here they are last night / removed from their individual glasses.
This a shoe bin sitting ( tipped) in a 10 gallon aquarium. It has
distilled water/ pieces of indian almond leaves, java moss , gravel, sphag, and of course tad food.
I threw some springtails in--- of which are hanging around on the sphag and floating on the water?
I just took a look a few minutes ago--- 4 of the 5 have -------both fronts.
As they come out---I'll put them on the wet paper towel - in this same enclosure - outside the shoe bin - so they can feed
( hopefully ) on their first bites of dusted fruit flies.
From there ( at least 2 weeks later ) they will go into a grow-out tank ( drilled for drainage) w/ a standard lightly planted/ layer substrate bottom enclosure.
I purchased 3 of the 10 gallon aquariums at the the last $1 sale. I finally got brave ----and drilled them myself ! I purchased 3 screen lids and used aquarium sealant to add the glass to the inside of the lid ( so the darn FF don't escape, the humidity will be remain perfect for them, and they can't climb out ) I use really junky glass- on purpose--- so as much light passes through as possible. I find the cheapest ( always on sale !!!! ) plastic frames w/ glass > toss the frame and use the glass. This is much, much cheaper than getting it from the 'glass guy'.
I'll add the photo of this grow-out again when the are all oow ( out of water! ) They will be a few days apart! There is one that will probably come oow this weekend? It's important to make sure they have this easy access to 'land'. ie the sphagnum moss. They are really ready...they are all acting like little froggies. I love to watch them come to the surface of the water to take a breath and then retreat back into the water. They're practicing
