Default interesting embryo pic

whilst moving eggs about the other day, one of the german giants popped, the embryo was already dead as the eggs were at the stage of hatching, it was put in a cooler incubator primarily due to space and equipment issues and i presume this is the reason for the late formation/death of the little guy.

anyway upon further look you can make out a body, the picture was taken with a macro lens, the actually thing is very hard to make out. just thought it would be worth posting.

I think I can see it perfectly, its on its back, huge eyes with small mouth/jaw inbetween/below them. Below that are its arms/hands and body

Fantastic pic

Amazing pic! I once had an egg which hadn't formed properly and the beardie inside was like a cyclops - pics went to cyberspace with my old PC sadly but it was bizarre!

crownan describes it right, its led on its back, two big black eyes, jaw bone between, front claws resting on stomache.

interesting thing is while the tail was formed, there were no back legs present
