Today was a busy day!

The morning was spent tickling and feeding elephants…

Steph was so determined not to leave South Africa, she climbed in!

The afternoon was spent having a spot of lunch at Ilala Weavers (and shopping) and then a tour around a local township.

And then the last item on the days agenda is a bit of a hardship….

More babies! Iguanas are hatching!

Lacey / February 22, 2012 / No comments

Our state of the art hatching facility (a drawer in the garage desk) has once more produced some babies for us this year.

This time it is the babies of our two lovely adult iguanas.

Imagine our delight when a quick peek at the eggs this morning showed us a little head

Peek-a-boo

Gently replacing the lid we left the little guy to do his stuff and break free from his former home.

How on earth does it fit in such a little egg!

He kept on going then he was free and jumped out of the box straight into my hand!

Ta da! One baby iguana, complete with a blob of yoghurt on its nose :)
