So far, the nelsoni have been pulling through this year. Last year all I got was slugs from both of these girls. This year, it looks like I've got two good clutches. Maybe there is something to be said for cooling a male down in the 50's?

The clutch from my 98 female (second picture) is especially rewarding since this is the first time she has produced good eggs in her life! She was the pick of the litter from Doug Moody's 1998 clutches (I picked her out of a pile of them at his place) but she never ate well and was an extremely slow grower. 10 years of working with her and it looks like I might have some babies from her. Father also pictured. These are the real deal nelsoni straight from the one who hatched the first albino.
