Subject: *As if trying to rival her siblings, the egg almost jumps with the effort of the unborn gryphlet. A series of sharp peeps of frustration ring out, as quiet and muffled they are by the shell that still imprisons the gryphlet.* Author: 2nd egg (Name?) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:09:20 12/05/01 Wed In reply to: Judeth and Aubri 's message, "*they wiggle turning to their left sides a crack opens in the eggs as they move a soft sound can be herd in the females shell." on 18:35:15 12/05/01 Wed *Another sharp peep and then silence. A moment later, the egg wiggles again and the crack widens. The process is repeated and repeated until the crack is no longer thin, but opening the egg in half. *A tiny beak appears, then a head, neck, body, and finally tail. Breathing labored, the gryphlet lays on her side for less than the time it took her to exit the egg before she staggers to her paws and talons. Though she seems full of energy, her eyes are half-closed in tiredness. Only the instincts of a child carries her stumbling to her mother, Wintersky.* [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
