50 day countdown to peek Mystic Project

anthony james mc Aug 08, 2009 11:14 PM

Well I set up 4 eggs tonight from Mystic x Mystic, she also unfortunately had 3 slugs in there too. The 4 are fertile and are decent sized so maybe if the odds are not to hard on them we can uncover the first Super Mystic in about 55 days! 4 eggs is about 1 less than I thought she'd lay but hey I can't complain as they do look fine so far. Kinda cool stuff , thought I better share this for those wondering if I have a shot or not.

Hopefully the odds you've been hitting this year with some of your mystic clutches this year will hold up and everyone will get to see a super mystic. Good luck!

Actually with 4 eggs I think the odds could easily not be on my side this time around. I did really good with the Potion odds so in my mind this clutch that I was REALLY counting on may be a tough one to hit on, I had a feeling this would happen actually. 4 eggs in theory should hit the Super once , but it can also about as easily miss the Super too. Time will tell , it is what it is at this point. Thanks for wishing them luck Jason!

Take care,

send me your contact info on an email so I have it handy.

Yeah, I know how the odds can turn on you even when you think you have a decent chance. Last year the clutches I had were text book odds. Out of four het albino to het albino eggs, I got one albino, two visual hets, and one normal. Pastel to normal got me an even 50% split on pastels and normals...this year, yeah, not so much. I'm sure everyone in here is keeping their fingers crossed for this clutch, though, Anthony.

And I'll definitely email the contact info shortly.

Thanks Anthony - something else for me to loose sleep over!

I wish you the best of luck,
Dan

I hear ya Dan! One more egg would have been nice for sure, it happens. I am 100% confident the Super form will exist , just a matter of when really is the question. Easily could miss on 4 eggs this time around so keep your fingers crossed!

You are supposed to send me some pics too, remember?

Anthony,

You beat me to it! I think my female mystic is gravid right now. I can't wait to see what you hatch!
