Rainer Mike didn't have any locality info, but they don't have any hets that we are aware of. I like the other female even more than this one, but both are gorgeous, and so is the male.

Jeff who? These were from Mike Russo, and have bred for him successfully for him before. I still have the second female which bred to a Mike's male. I have a feeling they will have better results.

Looks like only 5 decent looking eggs. There was a mass of slugs after I awoke from a long nap. I saw them hooked on at least 2 separate occassions, not sure what happened? I counted about 10 slugs. It was the males first breeding so maybe that's it. Still if the 5 are good, I'll be satisfied.

Out of 7 females only 21 good eggs so far....Arghhhhh....Oh well there is always next year....Great looking pair BTW and I hope those 5 are good ones they look good in the photo....

Ok, what's going on here....I think I've been jinxed. All this talk about bad clutches, and now this is what I come home to. Only 1 good egg out of a massive clutch of................ Drum rollplease......................................................................................................................5.

well at least there's one good egg.

Sorry to hear that Micah. So far this year is not going so well, for some of us. I have hopes still, that was just my first clutch. I hope you do better with your others, and your right, one is better than none!

That sucks!, but at least the others look perfectly good Jorge. I had a big Hondo lay an entire clutch of those nasty looking "water ballons" last year, so don't feel too bad..LOL!

Yaeh water baloons is a good description, lol. What a mess! It's too soon to know if the cinco in mayo are good, but I would be really happy with even five bro! I'll try my other big male for a second clutch and see what happens too, but this male has sulfur in him, and I had high hopes.

Yeah, but at least he did get some "sulfur" gene in there with the five good looking eggs. One just never knows man.

best of luck with all your stuff!

Very cool. The eggs that look like they leaked, did they leak before or after they came out? Just trying to learn more.
Thanks Jorge

I've seen slugs before, but this was a mess! I never had eggs look like that before. They did look like they were ruptured and just a goowey mess! Not sure what happened?
