The Nates(in order of hatching):

Most of the Normals were extremely dark!

and my favorite of the clutch!

These guys are FREAKIN HUGE!

Enjoy!

Wow Rusty, those are awesome! So cool to get a clutch late in the year like this!! I agree with you, I like the last one the best too. Good work my friend.

It's just like early x-mas for me!

They all look good, especially that last one. He really looks clean. I REALLY like the sire. I favor that shade of orange!

Yeah, he's pretty special, he's got all kinds of future genetic potential, but regarding feeding, well he's been quite the pain to switch from F/T hoppers to F/T mice...he just prefers the smaller stuff for whatever reason.

As long as he produces nice clutches...I guess I'll deal with it!

Nice Rusty, good for you. The neonates look great.

You know those are the biggest mouse feet I've ever seen in a snakes mouth.

Awesome Rusty!

Great looking amels once again too. Ain't it strange how much darker most of those are compared to the earlier clutch?..LOL!

Although that last one there is really super-nice and clean though. That thing looks a freakin hefty sub-adult in the pic too!..HAHAA!!

Congrats again there big guy!

That's what I thought too...that last one looks like an adult!

I know I can't keep them all...but that last one is sooooo killer looking!

Very nice clutch, Rusty! They look even better (and bigger!) on a computer screen than on my phone! A number of those are just smokin'.

Thanks Cole...oh, and I'll measure them soon and let you know just how big they are...I'm guessing at least 15 inches!

Nice Babies. Was that a raw chicken leg in the females mouth or some neighbor you didn't much care for?

It's a baby chicken...all of my adult hondos go ape sheet for them!

Nasty scat...but I like to vary the diet of my Hondos when possible.

Actually thinking about trying a drumstick, should be interesting!

Rusty,

Those are some really dark normals. I like them. Though I reckon I like the whole clutch (and the parents too).

RG Dec 11, 2010 11:21 PM

I know you likem dark!

RG Dec 11, 2010 11:10 PM

Already looking forward to next year!
