My Last Egg to Hatch!!!

latin1956 Nov 20, 2008 07:38 PM

This was from my 14th clutch, It was a Anery het Albino, paired up with a double het snow. She laid 8 eggs, but 7 were not fertile. She laid them 8/25/08 this lone egg hatched 11/19/2008, 87 days. I was wondering if this lone egg would be a snow! Lo and behold it was! now what are the odds.

Enjoy the pictures.

Joe, it's funny you should say that! This past tuesday I stopped a 7-11 and bought $45 worth of scrath tickets. One was for $20 and I won $1000 on just that one ticket!!!!! I also won $100 on the other 2 tickets.

I am never that lucky, but on Veterans Day went to the Casinos here in Colorado with a fellow veteran, and I won $1400 on penny slots. That was a first time ever I won that much, and let alone on one machine. My friend was not very happy since he did not win at all.

LOL

Thanks Randy

It was funny because I kept saying to myself what if that lone egg is a snow! LOL This was from a double clutch and the first clutch I did not get a snow. I did use a different double het male. Next year I will be using a snow male and see what comes out then. Hey them Extreme are growing like weeds and they look awesome, can't wait for them to get adult size already.

No ! last year I had a clutch of 8 eggs. I went to Daytona and they had not pipped yet. Well they did while I was away and all were out when I came home. But since I used a very air tight container, 7 of the babies had died and only 1 had survived. I think due to lack of oxygen. The one that did make it was a snow.
