Dreamsicle!

This clutch reminded me that I'll never lose the excitement of ball pythons! There was some yelling and fist pumping on this one.

First one to be hatched outside of the RDR castle... :cool:

6 eggs, 89 degrees, 55 days, 239 prayers, 67 well wishes = The Lavender Albino Piebald...

Even at 10 minutes old... doesn't disappoint!
