>>I agree that the other colubrids I have bred, have had much easier eggs than these. I will probably incubate at room temps from now on, as I think that the lower incubation temps were one of the factors in these babies' successful development. I am planning on using a different cage for an incubator, next year, which will hold more tubs, and have easier access via front sliding doors.

I got a clutch from the Brazos Island female and my new bimac. Unfortunately, I was in MI when they both layed, and it was the first clutch for both. Both clutches were mostly slugs. I don't think they had adjusted to the new conditions very well. In the case of the B. I. rat I probably didn't leave them together long enough. Anyway, I'm sure next year will be better.

PS: I tried with a desert king (too young) and another Emory's, but they didn't take.
