Hello all...



This year, I have my first 2 clutches in incubators.

I use hobovators and my temps have been 87-89 mostly right at 89 with 90% or more humidity.

My eggs are 55 days old today and I am starting to become impatient. Aside from that I read so many things about cutting and not cutting I am torn as to what to do. I am hoping that after writing this, I will go home and see at least one pipped, it seems people use this as a key when to cut, so if one is ready, maybe they all will be??

I work nights, so I wont get back to this post until later today.

OH BTW the clutches I have are from a het pied female and a pastel male, I dodnt get her until after she bred so she will be with my het pied male next yr. My het pied male actually bred with a mojave female I have so nothing spectacular this year.

Next yr I will have pieds, albinos and hopefully ivories and a blue eyed if all of the snakes I have mature and breed! This year is practice.
