This 8ft female is a 2001 pastel 66% het albino I purchased from Jeff Ronne at a het price LOL. The male is a pastel 100% het I also got from Jeff in a trade. It's the reddest het he ever produced and I think, well I know he regrets letting him go. Back to the story, I tried the pair in 2004 and 2005 but both times she absorb everything (which maybe someone could explain in a post for me), because to me those two years I saw courting 24/7 male lost interest(but didn't see ovulation)and she got big but months later nothing.

Both years I probably put the male in to early here in Sacramento, because I put the male in during late summer and temps where still 90's daytime and 70's at night. So maybe the male's sperm wasn't viable.

Anyway the last few days she was getting huge and this morning there it was an ovulation. When I came home this evening I went straight to her cage and she's even bigger now. I'm just going to have to wait now and hope for heathly babies. Sorry for the rambling, as you can tell I'm excited. I guess it's an early Christmas present.
Merry Christmas All.

Regards,
Derek
