MAJOR CONGRATS!!!!

Looking nice and pearly white!!!!

I would probably do a "little happy dance".

Be sure to tell us her stats.

Awesome sight. I have wanted both phases for the longest time, I am going to have to get them someday.

Congrats, Tom!

I've always said that you seem to breed any animal you touch!

Very cool.

Thanks! But Gary just to be clear it was a male white lipped not me that she mated with. I don't want people to get the wrong idea! If only my Timor pythons could here you and produce something!
I will post pics in a few moths when they hatch. It was not bad getting her off the eggs her temperament is really not bad anyway and she was still out of it. She is back to normal today and ate a rat. Life is good! Thanks Tom

Major Congrats for the this clutch. I have only heard of 1 other CB clutch being hatched by Whitelips so far. How did you do it??? I mean anything out of the ordinary? How about some specs? Thanks.

Big congrats Tom!!

Just curious...how many white lips do you have? And what size do you keep your adults in? Any chance we can see pics of dad?

You must be on cloud 9! Keep us posted....

Thanks! Just normal python breeding cycles worked and some luck! I only have one pair of the white lipped pythons. I think there are several breeders producing true captive born white lips and just not posting pics on kingsnake. Here is a pic of the male. Thanks Tom

Hi Tom -

Good work, yesterday my wlp female dropped a really nice looking clutch, and I'm wondering how you're incubating your eggs. This is my third wlp clutch and to date I've had horrible luck with hatching them. It would be great if we could trade incubation notes and hatch rate info. Thanks in advance, and good luck with those,

-Rolf
