I'm currently overseas thousands of miles away so even keeping up with my family is a challenge. Internet comes & goes. But anywho: Here's a couple of not too good pics taken by a novice (my wife)who's terrified of technology. These are the golden corn babies (yes, I found out there may be TWO of them!!!). After looking at the pics over and over again, I thought I'd share them with some of you, because it DOES look like that one has yellow on it already (what do you think?)

Due to some infertility problems with a male that was less than a year old and only a little over two feet (but powerfed and cooled off for four weeks - I tried my best), I finally got the totals:

Golden corn breeding this year to her son results: 16 eggs - 11 slugs, one died in it's egg (?), and only 4 hatched. According to the wife, two of the babies have no orange on them and the other two do. I tried to tell the wife how to use my digicam and she tried her best. Check these (bad) pics that she took of them earlier today and you can see for yourself. She will take more pics tomorrow. Hopefully she'll figure out my camera a little better (I caught H_ll when I criticized her on her digicam skills,lol). Really sorry for the bad pics. But I should have more, better ones, tomorrow. BUT: My wife will take the mother Golden corn to Daytona this year to be put on display for a whole day (On Saturday only). You can see the Golden Corn at table 708 (with ECC - East Coast Colubrids).

Pics: First pic is two of the babies with the yellowish one in the center and a sibling running away, lol! Second pic shows the other siblings with a good wash of orange and the little one near the bottom is another non-orange individual.

Thanks for your patience,



Zee
