Eggs!!!!!!

mike31 Jan 16, 2008 03:38 PM

I checked on my female western hognose this morning and found 12 eggs and 1 slug. How long does it usually take to see the veins forming in the eggs? I didnt brumate my hogs and I'm curious to see how many eggs are fertile.

Wow! Eggs in January? They do look good. When did you put them together? How old is mom?

I put them together in late september early october. I always start my boas at this time so I figured I would go ahead and throw these guys together as well. The last actual sighting of them breeding was november 24th but the male was in with her a couple more times. The female is around 4 years old. I checked all of the eggs with a flashlight and they look good. I hope I get a good ratio of albinos out of this clutch.
