I am very excited!! I have my first clutch ever of ball eggs in the incubator and should be hatching anytime after the 22nd, depending on how long they go. I know this is not anywhere as exciting or cool as the gorgous pics of cool morphs that are being posted but even though they are just normals, being the first ones, it is exciting to me. I have 5 beautiful big eggs full of fat red blood veins!
AND, the most exciting thing happened last night, I was candling the eggs because I had read that when they are further along you can see the snake move and to my surprise and pure pleasure, I saw the snakes in two of the eggs moving around. I am used to corn eggs and you never see any movement in the eggs when candling, even up to the day they hatch, so this was absolutely soooo cool!
Here are some pics of mom and eggs. I have no idea what dad looks like because I purchased mom from a pet shop that had gotten her in with a 5 more that a person had to part with because the place they were moving to would not allow them. She was already gravid when I purchased her. I am logically assuming the dad was one of the two males in the group.
Mom..

Eggs after laid (I lost the top one, there are 6 here)...

Egg with veins (sorry about being blurry)....
