I incubate eggs around 74-80. It takes longer than at constant 80 but I get a nice ratio of males and females and zero incubation deformities.

The sire is a brick-red Panther Canyon, the dam is a standard pale yellowish tan. As all who raise subocs know, it takes a while for them to show their colors. Right now they're all grayish tan. The female double-clutched without mating a second time. Candling the eggs shows them to be fertile, so four more might be out around Christmas.

I also have a pair of locality matched Heuco Canyon subocs, which are some of the cleanest subocs I've ever seen, and a lovely but indescribable yellow/greenish/taupe/fawn...something. Suboc color. I plan to try breeding them next year. They'll probably be hatched around Halloween.
