Aww, babies! That’s actually what I said when I opened it. I want to take the gecko and the babies and take them home and hug them and squeeze them and call them George.

I love how the light slants down and points directly to her head, like _DUN DUN_…

Heh. These little guys are actually slimy salamanders (_Plethodon glutinosus_), and I thank the heavens that I chose to enter a profession in which I get to see stuff like this all the time. 😃

Hey, don’t laugh. 30 seconds after this photo was taken, all those eggs hatched and tried to attach themselves to his face. :eek:

Oh, those are EGGS.
I thought the lizard was a marbles champion.

It looks like a collection of human eyeballs. I bet that cute salamander face is hiding the deranged mind of a serial killer. With an eyeball fetish.

That little critter laid those big eggs???
The human equivalent would seem to be giving birth to something the size of an average 4 year old.
Epidural had DAMN well better work, for that!!

Does he have anymore pictures of them after they hatched? I’d love to see them.
