I am so excited, I've had all these females looking ready to busrt any minute and two of them finally laid today, eggs look good, hopefully the rest will lay today too. I am really excited about the eggs from my superhypo tang carrottail x hypotangerine albino carrottail cross, I have some that will be hatching in ten days or so, I can't wait to see what the babies look like. Unless my superhypo tang carrot girl has genes I don't know about, they should be nice looking hypo or superhypo tang carrots het for albino, which should make for some AMAZING albinos next year.
I am also excited to see the offspring from my hets, my male was sold to my by tremper a few years ago as het patternless, if that is true I could have patternless tang albinos hatching out this year. But I'm not getting my hopes up over that one.
On a sad note it looks like one of the tang albino eggs I was incubating for male (should be hypotang albino, possible patternless tang albino) has died, it's been unseasonably warm here in SF and the inc. temp swung up to 94 for a few hours one day before I noticed the prob and fixed it. I think that's what did it. But maybe it was going to die anyway, the other egg is fine.
What is the upper end fatal temp for eggs again? I've misplaced my leopard gecko manual.
I've attached a baby pic of one of my tang albinos that hatched out a week and half ago. Her colors are coming in pretty strong already, I think she will be a particularly nice one. Note the orange V on the head- that's where I see the best indicator of future color on babies when they hatch, and it deepens on the body after hatching. The thing you see on her right side abdomen is just some loose skin.
