First clutch of Easterns hatched this past week, a long wait since March 8. I worked at keeping temperature at 75 degrees. It was sometimes lower and towards the end often spiked above 80. First hatchling out was a small female with the kinks we've almost come to expect. 2.4 followed. One of the males is small and doesn't look robust. Of the 2.5 hatchlings two have lots of red. Others are non-red. Both parents are non-red.
