Eggs at last!

kathylove Apr 21, 2008 11:37 AM

My first clutch of the year, and only my 2nd clutch ever (of BP eggs), so it is still exciting for me! Last year I only hatched out 4, including the '07 female pastel half sib (same dad but different mom) to the eggs here. Hope to see more like her soon! And still probably have a couple more clutches to go from the same pastel dad.

When it stops being exciting, you should probably quit doing it!

Congratulations on your new and old(er) beauties!

Congratulations Kathy,
It looks like there are at least eight eggs. It is a good sized healthy looking clutch.

Great looking clutch Kathy! Congratulations!

You will soon be hooked on ball pythons just as much- if not more than- the corns.....just wait and see!! Wait until you hatch your first Albinos or Piebalds.

I'll be checking out your ball babies at the next show we do!!

Sure hope I never get 100 females - that would be too much like work, lol! Wouldn't be as much fun then. Since I only have about 3 dozen, they are more individuals to me than my corns - always have to work to keep the numbers within reasonable bounds!

I just found this cypress at Ace Hardware. Seems much softer and nicer than the cypress mulch I have bought elsewhere.
