There were nearly 11 months between the last picture above and the first below. We had just about given up hope that anything would come of it.

Today we got the final stage and this is the first time we could see the whole cycle. It was quite a releif and very exciting for the family to see the first emrege .
We hope that there are going to be more and hopefully different sexes.
