Not sure, but I think that's what we have here. Hopefully I'll find out.

I'm going to try and stick with them. Surprising how the appearance has changes in the past 36 hours.

Things are progressing.

This first one is about 24 hours after the initial posted image. Fairly quick dramatic change inside the egg.

These next three are 11 days after the initially posted image. They are just starting to move around inside the eggs.

Wonderful! That last image gives a spectacular view of those tracheal tubes that extend through the whole length of each appendage.
