Eggs-A-Cook'en..............................

Del Jun 08, 2003 01:58 PM

Us southern California boys are just starting to get eggs. I kept my girls cool for about a month longer and it seems to have paid off. I will post some pics when they hatch. So far we have the following eggs in the pits:

Albino X white bulls (both het for each other)
Albino Lubbuck Tx. X Kingsville Tx. Bull (New hets)
Het X White bull (2 clutchs)
N. Pines

Looks like my jani may drop her first cluch soon. Also my albino lubbuck female (100% albino)and my hypo bull (hypo X white both het for each other)should drop too.

Later - Del

are the parents really white and black, or is there a lot of red on them? My baby sonorans started out eating fuzzies too, didn't take long to graduate to hoppers either, lol.

Great looking pic, please post some more of the babies when they start hatching! Always great seeing new babies each year.

Have a good one, and thanks again for the great pic.

Hey Terry!

Good grief, that northern is amazing!!!! Where does that one's bloodline originate from? Do you have a pic of the parents? Any chance you are going to be at Daytona this year?

Awesome snake! Post AS MANY pics as you can of your northerns!

The breeders are some gems we picked up from Mr. Ginter. Terry may have some pics of them.....

terryp Jun 09, 2003 05:22 PM

This is the female parent. She's got good black and white contrast with shades of reddish overtones in the ground color behind the head and then down by the tail. These are definately impressive when they hit 6 feet plus. As Del has mentioned our stock comes from John Ginter. They are Burlington County New Jersey Pine Barrens locale. How's your awesome Meltzer Norhtern Pine doing? Looks like there should be some babies out this year from Russell's Northern Pine. Also a John Meltzer produced Northern Pine beauty.

Hey! Where's the pic of Ugmo?

aunteye Jun 09, 2003 07:27 PM

Oh, and nice Pinesnake!

terryp Jun 10, 2003 10:29 AM

to get a pic up on the forum. I have to get the pic and send it to someone who puts it up on a server of my photos. Then, I get the URL to copy onto my post. You are correct. I need to get a good pic of Ugmo and put a post up.

I love that parent!!! What a knockout!!!!!!! Ginter's pines are killer! My northern pine from Meltzer has a lot of red overtones also. I guess that it is common with northerns. I love it though, it only adds to their beauty.
My Meltzer northern pine is doing great! He has grown so fast! I got him in 2001 at Daytona and he was about 15 inches or so. Now, he is about 4 feet. He loves to relax curled up in my hand. One time he fell asleep for 30 minutes or so!

Terry, I will email you a recent pic of him. Thanks bro!

They just moved us on opposite ends of work facility so we communicate on here more than eye to eye.... That tells you how big this place is lol

gofer Jun 09, 2003 10:28 AM

You have some nice projects this year, keep me updated on all the eggs/babies. I'm waiting for one more clutch of Sonorans and my pits will be done breeding for this year.

Have a good one,
