Well what can I say. Exactly 50 days ago a Female Westy of mine dropped what looked to be 9 good eggs.... after less than a week the eggs had all blown up and gone a manky yellow see through colour...they looked pretty bad. So, chucked them in the incubator and kinda forgot about them for a while. Other clutches were produced and every now and then I would check them all and occasional if I felt the need would check the eggs that I thought had gone bad, or so i thought. Well gone to the incubator today to check the other eggs and low and behold there is a small hatchling staring at me, from the tub of 'BAD' eggs.! Open up to find several roaming around and a couple just pipping.! Check out both the state off the eggs, the cute hatchlings produced and the striped baby.! These are from a het to normal breeding, so are all possible hets. Thanks to 'evilelvis' for supplying me with the het male.

Cute as.!

Wow, well done dude, that is one nice hog!! You probably wont be suprised to hear that the mother of your male is the jungle sister to the teardrop!!! What sex is it?

I wont be offended if you'd like to give it to me as a gift(:

Not sure about sex as yet but I think the striped might be a keeper.! How much you doing albinos for this year? Got 8 hatchlings in total out of the nine eggs.! Well happy.! The only reason I kept hold of the eggs is because I could see lots of veins in the see through part of the egg.? Paid off.!

Very cool baby. Definitely a keeper and if I'm reading the post correct, it is genetic. That's awesome!
