IJ Carpet laid eggs...

JDouglas Mar 23, 2006 12:56 PM

The final count was 11 fertile eggs!

Doesn't she look great for a female that is laying!

Here is a picture of the male, Sonny, that fathered this clutch...

They should be some nicely colored banded hatchlings!

Cant wait to see the babies, should be screamers! What line is that female?

It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper stored up acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched tv. And then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus stole all his acorns, and he got a race car. Is any of this sinking in?

Thanks for the reply. I purchased Nyoka back in 2004 from Nyoka Reptiles. Her parents were wild caught adults. Her parents produced offspring several years in a row. I had several of her 03 and 04 siblings and she was the best of the bunch. Her sibilings also had excellent color and banding. It will be interesting to see what the Spitfire blood and this new blood will create.

Here are some shots of a few of Nyoka's siblings...

Thanks again,

Jaremy

Fanastic! I'm looking for some new lineage like that. Sonny is VPI stock isn't he? I might be interested in one when they hatch....

He is from VPI stock. Yasser, correct me if I am wrong.
