Octomoms and babies at Cove2

Post by YellowEye »

Hi
I heard both the octos on eggs we were watching at cove2 have now passed. :(

According to the second hand news, neither Mom released eggs well before passing. Let's hope some of them make it. I haven't been down there myself, due to a cold.

In case you didn't get to see them (truly an amazing sight), here were some of the babies, and one of the Moms. I posted the mom and the center baby, my favorite, earlier.
