Wow, congrats on the amazing looking albino posted above and on the twins!!! Great looking snakes, post some more pics once they have shed if you get a chance.
Congrats again,

>>The total clutch was 6 eggs but 1 had gone bad early on. Unfortunately the one directly under that egg also went bad and was probably infertile all along as it contained a solidified mass, no blood vessels, and no snake. So that left 4 good eggs. The first three eggs yielded 3 albinos. I couldn't believe my good luck on that but was a little bummed that I'd only have 4 snakes total from the clutch. Well egg 5 finally pipped and 2 heads came out - turns out there were 2 bodies too. That egg yielded 2 hets. So the final count is 3 albinos and 2 hets from 4 eggs! Will sex them after first shed...

>>I have a few other clutches from other species incubating but it's always great to hatch out something I haven't hatched before. Though I've hatched many clutches of Kunashiri climacs in the past, I'm psyched to have finally hatched out amel Honshu climacs - which I've wanted to work with for many years.
