one of my emoryi pairs hooked up.
This pair produced the two female albinos last season.
Only six egs and two hatched out albino and female.
Let's hope my odds are somewhere close this season.
The other pair are in a breeding box now but do not seem interested, yet.
They are het albino.

Jimmy when I read your post title I have to say that I was a little afraid to open it as it sounded a little personal. HaHaHaaaa
But seriously good luck with those emeryi hook ups.

That's great Jimmy. Good luck. I thought you'd like to know that the pair of bairdi from Sam and Rosie that I got from you last year are doing great. The picky eater is a pig now

I'm glad he came around Matt.
Hopefully he'll never look back now.
Heck, my bairdis are my dispose-alls.
Ecery once in a while a snake will refuse to eat and whenever this happens I just give the "leftovers" to one of the bairdi females. They never refuse.

The second pair hooked up!!!
This pair is supposedly het albino as well. Last season the female only laid four eggs and they all turned out to be normals. With only four eggs I can't really draw the conclusion that they aren't het albino so hopefully they will produce a larger clutch with a few albinos mixed in for good measure....fingers crossed...lol

Draybar I have done a few het to het breeding's and once had 10 eggs no albinos and the same female laid a second clutch on her own of 4 eggs and ALL where albino, so give it some time (like u are doing)for them to prove out. Sometimes they don't like punnett squares LOL.

thanks Frank
I've got my fingers crossed.
I don't really have any reason to believe they aren't het albino. They were purchased at the same time from the same breeder so I think it will turn out OK

I've had het to het breedings produce 0 out of 10 and only 1 out of 11 before although it was another species. The 0 out of 10 clutch was proved out the next year but it's safe to say I was questioning weather they carried the gene for the year in between.
