Pythons coil up on the warm stones of the Mangrove Steps, and they like to look you straight in the eye while they talk. Sssorted.
Laying her egg: “Look into my eyesss…”
Once it's laid: “Sssorted.”
A baby's first words: “Hissss-llo!”
The six Python babies
Every species in Perfect Crack has six Hatchery Babies: the everyday baby you meet first, four rare colours (Frost, Shadow, Golden and Rainbow, from sparkly and Rainbow eggs) and the Champion, won from the Champion egg in your scored Daily Challenge. Once freed, they live in your Jungle River habitat for good. In the game, tap a baby in its habitat on three different days to become friends and hear its secret.
Babies you haven't found in the game yet are hidden. Tap one to peek, or .

Noodle
Python · Common
Sleepy
Favourite activity: Curling up in a sunny coil
Noodle curls up in a sunny coil on the riverbank and sleeps until the sun moves, then shuffles into the next sunny spot and sleeps again. She's very long, very soft and very, very relaxed. Nothing bothers Noodle. Nothing wakes her either.
“The jungle's most dedicated napper. Possibly the world's.”
Secret: She has a favourite sunny spot for every hour of the day.

Coil
Frost Python · Uncommon · Carries the mark of the Great Frost
Shy
Favourite activity: Hiding under the log
Coil's pale frosty scales make him easy to spot, which is a shame, because he'd very much like to hide. He tucks himself under the old log and peeks out when he's sure nobody is looking. A gentle 'hello' usually gets a gentle 'hisss' back.
“Shy, but he answers when spoken to kindly. Most of us do.”
Secret: He practises being brave by peeking out a little further each day.

Hiss
Shadow Python · Rare · Carries the mark of the Great Eclipse
Mischievous
Favourite activity: Slithering up behind friends
Hiss is the quietest baby in the jungle, which makes him very good at sneaking up on people. He slithers through the shadows until he's right behind a friend, then says 'Hissss-llo!' in their ear. Everyone jumps. Hiss laughs until his tail curls.
“Wears a bell now, at my request. It hasn't helped.”
Secret: He jumps higher than anyone when somebody sneaks up on him.

Monty
Golden Python · Super rare · Carries the mark of the Golden Dawn
Sleepy
Favourite activity: Snoozing in a big loose coil
Monty is long, golden and very fond of a nap. He curls into a big, loose coil in the warmest part of the habitat, and the smaller babies love to snuggle into his loops. Monty doesn't mind at all. He's usually asleep.
“Living proof that a golden coil makes an excellent bed.”
Secret: He stays awake until the little ones are asleep, then dozes off himself.

Ziggy
Rainbow Python · Ultra rare · Carries the mark of the Great Rainbow
Curious
Favourite activity: Peeking into every hollow log
Ziggy can't pass a hollow log without peeking inside. She has explored every log, hole and hollow along the Jungle River, and she slithers out of each one with a shimmer of rainbow scales and a new story. Most of the stories are about beetles.
“Fearless explorer of logs. Leading expert on beetles.”
Secret: She found an old Guild mallet inside a log and has hidden it somewhere safe.

Slinky
Champion Python · Champion · Won at the Hatchery Show
Curious
Favourite activity: Exploring the Mangrove Steps
Slinky spent her first day as a Champion exploring backstage, and she has been exploring ever since, mostly round the Mangrove Steps, where the roots twist into tunnels. She knows every shortcut on the river.
“A Champion with a remarkable sense of direction. Better than mine.”
Secret: She knows a secret path from the Mangrove Steps to Toucan Falls.
Did you know? Some mother pythons coil around their eggs and shiver their muscles to keep them warm until they hatch.
