This handsome hatchling popped out of the only good egg from a very messy 5 egg clutch. He/she is a really nice looking animal and I love the C band with the fading on the side. Thanks for looking and thanks again Jeff Hardwick. Mike Panichi

PS Jeff, I had my first mouse tail feeding event after I spoke with you and although I had a few kickbacks, I got through it ok and it became easier as I went along. Thanks again. Mike

Well done Mike! Nice bright red gentilis!
Next year, a clutch of patternless and albinos - right?
Here's a pic of the sire again.
Stay in touch....Jeff

thanks Jeff. I have another five eggs due any day from the other female so I have my fingers crossed. Thanks again for your guidance. Mike Panichi

Very nice, bright red snake! Even w/ the solo hatchling I'd be ecstatic! Great job....

thanks I am very pleased. The clutch was doomed from the start and I had to fight to keep this egg afloat. I dusted the egg three different times with anti fungal powder. Usually I just hit the clutches lightly once when I set them up but this clutch needed all the help it could get. A battle well fought, LOL. Thanks Mike Panichi

Mike, what kind of powder do you use?

Thanks Shannon

I use a makeup brush or a feather brush used to lift fingerprints with Zeasorb-AF. Its for athletes foot and jock itch. The active ingredient is miconazole nitrate 2%. Later man

Super good looking hatchling there.

Fantastic, Mike! What a stellar little neonate. I've got loads hatching myself, but haven't taken any photos. Keep us posted on the other clutch. How are the pales?

Post some photos Cole!! Anyway, the Pales are doing well. Thanks for asking. I have another clutch of these guys pipping now so I should have one more photo op, LOL. Thanks. Mike Panichi
