YAY. ok Coco the tiger burrowed straight into the eggs (they always do that) so i brought her out and there was a baby tiger on her back! ALIVE! awwwwww it was so cute. do u think Coco smashed the egg and the snail came out or do you think the baby came out by itself. anyway i tried feeding it some crushed fulica egg but it wasnt interested, do they only eat their own egg. I dunno what to do with this snail. put it with the other baby species?

Leave em alone Mikey - they'll hatch and spend a few days under the soil before they emerge into the big wide world lol. Baby snails love riding around on adults backs - its really cute! They'll be fine where they are. Well done Mikey. ;D

Wow, Mike! You must be excited. I guess I wouldn´t even go to bed, would only watch the tank. ;D Hope there hatch some more. And hope you will think on me when you are starting sending out some babies. Kind regards, Gabi

Lol I don't think he'll have enough to go round, the amount of people that have asked. I'm sure he'll sell all he can to everyone he can so don't worry.
I'm sure some others will pop up too.

Well done! With my baby Fulica I just gave them cucumber and a slice of cuttlefish. They ate both lol. Tigers might be a bit more delicate though, so go with what the other guys say!
