no pics uploaded but so far this is how my season is going and honestly I couldn't ask for any better. A little background as to why I am so happy with how this season is going. I moved from south Florida to S. Carolina in 2010 and had a horrible season with egg production (my guess was the move in December). The upside was that I was going to have a bunch of morph females that were going to be huge for the next season. Well wouldn't you know it, I had a thermostat failure and killed off 3 racks of breeder morph females. I was CRUSHED to say the least and almost sold off the remainder animals. Thankfully a good friend of mine Jay Miller talked me into keeping the animals and his excitement of producing awesome animals got my fire burning again. I have added a few more animals and held back all my morph females that I was able to produce last season and the future is looking bright. With all that said this is how this season is working out all locks or laid/ready to lay:

pied x albino = already laid 7 good eggs
pied x het pied (3 breedings with good folicle growth)
lesser x granite = 8 eggs palpated and she has shed
firefly x vanilla = 5 eggs palpated and she has shed
super vanilla x pastel (2 breedings)
super vanilla x yb
pastel yb x dinker female (looks specter-ish)
pastel yb x pastel
pied x black pastel het pied
albino x het albino (x 2)
enchi x normal (x 2)
enchi x yb
mystic x spider
mystic x mojave

I also have a specter male (from Jay Miller) that is 328g today that I am saving a female yb for. Hopefully he does something. And a male fire bumblebee that is 312g that I'm saving a vanilla pastel for as well. Who knows maybe they will do something in may or june. I hope everyone else is having a good year and hatches out some more crazy things.
