Wow, they are so beautiful - chunky, healthy looking little things! I've been so lucky not to have a stillborn hatchling as I know they're common and it must be sad. Still you got a very good hatch rate. I love the little one with less red on it - it's beautiful and unusual. Are you keeping any of the babies? How are they to feed?

It's weird about the sperm retention - but with my corns I'm sure she didn't retain sperm because I got totally different hatchlings this year - normal and striped last year; and anery, anery stripe, snow and one beautiful little snow striped baby this year - I've kept the snow stripe.

It would be so fantastic to get a golden helena, but I don't suppose there's much chance that they're both carrying the gene for albinism!
