big eggs = huge babies!!

RobHaneisen Oct 01, 2006 10:27 AM

Remeber those five huge Honduran eggs I posted aboity two months back? Well they hatched inot the biggest hatchlings I've ever produced. After 62 days out popped five super fat and just plain big hatchlings. Three het for albinos and one really nice tangerine albino to go with a peach phase albino (not pictured). I was alittle surprised by the size because the mother of these isn't huge, though at 700 grasm she is not tiny. The father is huge, measuring 64 inches and weighing in at about 1,300 grams.

Enjoy!

Good looking pups Rob,
I also had one clutch this year that produced some monsters.It was a ghost x dbl-het ghosts.I measured one of the ghosts at 17 inches out of the egg.

Hi Rob - Did you weigh the eggs and hatchlings? Thanks.

Not yet, I'll weigh a measure a few of the biggest in a few days after they shed to see exactly how big they are.
