We hatched two cltuches this year that we were eagerly anticipating. And we got some incredbible babies to show for it.
The dark one in this pic is the offspring of a strange looking male named Proteus. All of the babies look very much like Proteus' sisters instead of him lol. Thwey have the wide banding and generally reduced pattern indicative of Proteus' bloodline.
The bright red baby is from what I feel is our best quality WP pairing to date, PosterChild X Herman. All of the babies look like PosterChild. Not to mention, this is the clutch where we got 16 babies out of 10 eggs! 6 sets of twins! I want so badly to say they are hypomelanistic but it is too early to say still. By the definition of the term, they surely are hypo but by herpetoculture standards, I think more needs to be done.
Pics of Proteus, PosterChild and Herman are available on our website if you wish to see where these guys came from.
This year has been a great one for sure and we still ahve more neat stuff cooking!
