thought I would post an update

Ok here is complete update of my breeding season, so far.

Arwen: female creamsicle bred to male motley cream:
laid 20 eggs:
18 hatched successfully

Glacier: female snow bred to male ghost het amel:
laid 18 eggs:
all 18 eggs hatched successfully
11 anerys and 7 snows

Shana: female cinnamon bred to male cinnamon:
laid 24 eggs:
18 eggs hatched successfully (notice the 18 trend...lol)

Yoda: female creamsicle bred to male stripe creamsicle:
laid 18 eggs (of course)
should begin hatching any day now.

Rosie: female bairds rat snake bred to male bairds rat snake:
laid 5 eggs (2 slugs 3 good)
all 3 viable eggs hatched successfully

Frosty: female snow bred to male ghost het amel:
laid 3 eggs (2 slugs 1 good)
unfortunately egg died 57 days into incubation.

so out of 84 eggs put into incubation 57 have hatched, so far, with 18 eggs due any day now.
all and all not too bad. that would be an 89% hatch rate if the remaining 18 all hatch out.
.

Not starting out too bad.
36 hatchlings had shed as of this morning so I added them to my feeding schedule for this evening.
So far 28 of those 36 have eaten. whoo whoo.
These were all f/t.
The other 8 will be left with their f/t pinkies over night and tomorrow will tell.

The cream het stripe babies should begin pipping during the week.
