Looks like 3 of the bearded dragon eggs have started hatching! Haven't sorted out which ones yet though, or who was closest to guessng right!
Really needed this good news - yesterday my husband went out hacking on our horse with a friend. He was in the lead, walking up the side of the road in single file as you should, both were wearing full flourescent gear. He turned to say something to his friend and noticed a car coming up behind fast. He saw the car just plough into the horse behind, sending it sailing through the air, knocking him and my horse into a ditch.
Steve and Jazz shocked and bruised but otherwise okay, Keith behind was flung onto the road, but seems okay apart from his shoulder. The jury is still out on whether Clover will make it - doesn't seem to have broken bones, but could be internal injuries. That she didn't have to be put down on the spot was a miracle.
The car, simply did not see them. It was driven by two old folks not wearing seat belts and obviously not paying attention. Hitting half a ton of horse doesn't do a car much good - its a complete write off, and they were both badly injured. I am afraid I have no sympathy - and if the driver can never drive again so much the better. It could have been a kid cycling, a jogger or a mother and pram, they wouldn't have noticed! Good visibilty, Steve and Keith couldn't have been dressed more brightly.
At least watching the eggs hatch will give us all something more pleasent to think about!
