Texas eggs hatched

steve fuller Jul 09, 2005 09:23 AM

2.6 Texas indigo hatchlings emerged at the end of June. All have shed and three have taken f/t pinks first time offered. Started with eight eggs in March. Two went bad along the way. Still waiting on unicolors.

Nice job Steve! Looks like a beauty.
My unis are out but my BT's have about a week to go.
I'm hoping to hatch another aberrant freak like last year

Did you keep the aberrant freak? If so,what does it look like now?

BTW, Tony, AKA: thesnakeman is wants you to contact him at thesnakeman@centurytel.net

Yea, I still have him. He's not as strange looking as he was when he was born but he's still kinda different. He's got more of a greenish tint to him where the others are more golden brown. He also has banding that gets darker toward the tail where the others just gradually turn black. Here's a more recent lousy photo of him next to one of his siblings and a close up of the banding near the tail.
No big deal but he's kinda neat to look at I think.

I'll email Tony....thanks,
Chris
