First ever BP Clutch

SlytherLyn Jun 05, 2010 10:32 AM

This is SO fun. Got my first good Corn clutch yesterday, 23 eggs, then woke up today to find my het Caramel BP laying her clutch. Was bred to het Caramel male so all babies will be either poss het Caramels or Caramels. I've counted 9 eggs. Unsure if she's done laying so haven't removed them yet. After yesterdays corn eggs these ball eggs look HUGE. This is my first ever BP clutch so I'm extra excited, or should I say eggcited

She looks SO skinny now. I hope she'll start eating again soon. Had no problem lifting her off the clutch. A little hissing but not bad. Eggs are safely in the incubator. Counting the days till I get to see my first baby BP poking it's little nose up at me! Father of this clutch is a 2002 het Caramel produced by Nerd, Mother is a 2003 het Caramel produced by Will Still.

Thanks everyone! I'm not sure how much to bury the eggs in the pearlite with them all stuck together. Is it better to fully bury the bottom ones so the top ones can be partially buried? Or better to leave the bottom ones partly out in which case the two on top won't be buried at all?
