Hello all, this is my first time posting here, I usually post on the Corn and Boa forums. I just had a clutch of Brooksii hatch out yesterday. I had a very small clutch of only 4 eggs, but they all produced nice healthy babies. I was wondering if anyone can post some pics of hatchling and adult hypos? As far as I know, one of the pairs I had that produced this year is het hypo. The pair that had the eggs hatch yesterday are het hypo, I don't have all that much experince with Florida kings, but they are really light in comparison to my other pair. from what I got in the clutch that hatched, I guess one is hypo. 3 are mostly black with some red on their sides, but 1 has almost no black at all, and where the others are black it is red. It does have some black on it's head and a bit on the sides, but it is mostly yellow and red.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rick S.

This is a clutch of all hypos. They were from a Love stock male bred to a Beard stock female. Some are darker than others but all are hypo.
Hope this helps!

Thaynk you for the pic. It looks like I got one hypo in my clutch. My one pair is from BHB, these produced the hypo, but I'm not sure where the other pair is from. I'm watching them for a friend who gave me permission to breed them this year. Guess I'll have to find out where he got em!

Thanks a lot for the pic!
Take care,
Rick S.
