My First Corn Baby is Hatching!!!!!!

SlytherLyn Jul 27, 2010 09:53 PM

I am SO excited. Peeked in the incubator on my way to bed and was shocked to see this little pink face looking back at me! Day 53 so wasn't expecting them to pip yet.

Parents are Normals, 100% het Albino, Anery, Charcoal, Diffused and possible het Hypo. Purchased in 2002 from Kathy Love when they were 3 days old.

I've tried breeding them twice before, no luck, guess third time was the charm. 23 eggs laid, only one went bad, so still 22 good eggs.

First one out looks like a Snow to me. I'm soooo excited. I've hatched Cali's before so these aren't my first snake babies but are my first Corn babies.

I ran out of room in the Hovabator so stuck 4 eggs in my Ball Python incubator which is at 85. This little darling is coming out of one of those 4 eggs. Another one is slit too with a little Anery looking baby poking just his nose out...

Will post more pics once they are out some more. This is so fun!!!

This one also shows the 2nd one to start to pip who looks like an Anery to me. Will be fun to see the whole clutch when they are out with their mix of Albino, Anery, Charcoal, and Diffused genes. Both babies keep ducking back into their eggs. Can't wait till they decide to come out and explore their world!

My best guess is Blizzard. I thought Snow when just her head was peeking out but she has no pattern. Parents are het Albino, Anery, Charcoal, and Diffused.

I say 'she' just because she's pink... haven't actually checked, will wait till she (or he) is a little bigger. Unsure at what age breeders start popping or probing?

Out of curiosity, could you tell the difference between a Blizzard and a Diffused Blizzard by looking at them or would you have to raise them up and breed them to try to prove out if they are Diffused or not?

She's the only one who's come out. I have two more with just their noses poking out... The dark one and another one that looks like maybe a normal.

I hope this one is a Blizzard and is a female because that would be something I'd like to keep and would be nice to be able to keep my first ever Corn hatchling

I can't answer the question on telling a blizzard from a diffused blizzard. I would assume it could be difficult straight out of the egg. may take a couple of sheds.??
that is going to be one heck of a fun clutch....there are so many things that could pop out it will be like Christmas...lol

So far I have a Blizzard, Anery, and Normal, with another Blizzard still in her egg not ready to come out yet, and 18 more eggs from the clutch that haven't started to pip yet. This is so fun. They are all so docile. I've only bred Cali Kings in the past and they came out of the egg ready to bite your finger tips LOL... Although that made them phenomenal eaters. Hope these babies will eat that good.

Under the photos is a little video of the 2nd Blizzard cutting her way out and getting his/her first peek at the world.

wow that blizzard looks to have zero pattern, but will it stay that way?, wonder if you did hit the jackpot odds on that snake and it is homogygous diffused?, that might be a really cool looking snake as an adult.
Congrats again!!!

The other Blizzard came out of its egg and also has no pattern at all like the first one. Wasn't sure if baby Blizzards are supposed to have pattern or not. Would be awesome if they turn out to be Diffused Blizzards. Won't know unless some hatch with pattern for comparison I guess.

Yes, on many blizzards you can just barely see a pattern to them.

Congrats on those nice youngsters!!
