Hopefully this pair of het albinos will give me some eggs soon. RW

This girl usually lays 13 to 15 eggs each year. I've been putting her and her boyfriend together and had been seeing signs of breeding but she didn't appear to become gravid so I never put in a next box with her. When I checked in on her yesterday under her hide box there she sat with 6 eggs which were drying up. She had such a small clutch that she never appeared gravid. She is a BIG girl so she has to be full of eggs to appear gravid. I took out the eggs and put them in the incubator and it appears I caught them in time and they should hatch. I mark that down as another lesson learned. This is her laying a year or two ago. RW

Randy,....

Glad you were able to catch those eggs in time!,....that would have been a bummer if not.

Very pretty and vividly colored gal as well!

Thanks Doug. Yea another day or two and they would have been bad.
That girl is my nicest mocquardi and my meanest by far. Randy

Imagine if they got to be 20 or so feet long with that same musculature type, strength, and defensive posture...bite ya right on the forehead.
