Copulation took place on August 8th.
Eggs laid on September 28th.
Yes - a very late season clutch.
Male - WC (Antioch, East Contra Costa County, CA locale) normal banded.
Female - CB Albino banded.
I'll try to get good pics of the parents later.
She laid 12 eggs. 7 died due to my mistake. I tried to use coconut fiber which worked well for my alligator lizard eggs. One went bad, I wasn't too alarmed. Then others started to go bad - I checked, the coconut fiber was way way way too wet - I immediately got some virmiculite and did 1:1 by weight - and the eggs stopped going bad. But it was too late for 7 of them.
So no more using coconut fiber for me. ----- 3.3 L. getula californiae
1.0 L. getula nigrita
1.0 Boa constrictor constrictor (suriname, fostering/rescue)
2.1.2 Elgaria multicarinata multicarinata
