Is everyone just sitting around waiting for their eggs to hatch?

Here's a lame shot of a nice '04 female. I'll have to get some better shots, the ground color is pretty unusual as is her pattern. One of Tim G's F1's

I'll tell ya. I have had some lame years before but my (usually dependable) thayeri just laid about a dozen duds......
Mex-mex did o.k. and I'm still waiting on eggs from a yellow thayeri but after the first one, I'm only half-hearted.

I have just one clutch going even though I have 4 females. Since I was moving in the middle of breeding season this year, I decided to wait until next year to breed all 4. So far the one clutch looks fine, should hatch in late July.

Mark,
Sorry to hear that man about the duds and I feel your half heart...I was majorly bummed at my colonies production this year but there is a reason for everything.

I did however get a great big clutch of sonoran gopher eggs on Father's Day....these eggs are the size of chicken eggs...huge...I should get the full run of morphs in the clutch as both parents were het for blizzard.

I'm waiting on about 25 thayeri eggs to hatch...first ones are due around the 1st of July and the rest within a week or so after that....looking forward to it.

There's always next year:/

Hi Greg. That's one great looking thayeri. Very nice pattern and the background coloration really unique. Did that one start out greyish or did it have orange as a hatchling? Do you have any other photos of her you can share?

Hi Maria,
I have a great shot that was taken when she was a hatchling. Tim Gebhard took the pic, so I cant really post it without his permission, but I'll try to e-mail it to you.
