Thank you Matt, Jeff the pics were taken at 1/50th shutter speed and supermicro mode ( no flash ) and just keep hand nice and steady lol :) Also I magnified a pic of the spawn and as far as I can tell there's about 320 eggs + or - a few here or there lol !!!!!!

Well as close as I can count I'd say between 236 and 275 wigglers. The pic with the red dots is one I counted and ended up with 236. But there are more behind him I can't count lol, buggers woun't move!!!! But I'd say there's at least another 40 or so. :)
