Hello Everyone,

I am happy to report that both of our Irian Jaya females decided to drop their clutches today. All of the eggs look perfect from what I can see so far. The first female is from Jason Baylin, and the second is from Bob Futo's line. I think we are going to let both maternally incubate.

And here is the proud Sire;

Thanks for looking!

Jay,

Thank you for the kind words. And the Sire is actually a wild caught import.

Here is a photo of the three of them from earlier in the breeding season. It better shows demonstrates their colors. One of the females has a faded smoky appearance with no real black at all (though she is a little darker than normal due to being gravid). The other has much more contrast and brighter colors. Compare their coils which are side-by-side in the bottom right quadrant of the photo.

My female dropped 20-22 on Sat/Sunday. I can count 20, but I think there's another one or two in the middle, underneath, that I missed. Last year she dropped 11, which was her first clutch.

I've left them with the females so I'm not sure how many there are exactly. Maybe 15 in each clutch? Guess we'll have to wait and see when they hatch!

My basement is very dry, so I have to remove them to an incubator for humidity regulation. I had one lump plus a single egg. I didn't want to turn the lumup, so I just counted what I could see.
I'm moving around the end of June, and the new (older, actually) has a 600sq foot building with heat, cooling, H&C water and sinks. I think it's time to expand the collection!
