GOT PIEDS!!! Just hatched today : )

bhmorrill Sep 16, 2005 09:52 PM

It is a happy day for us! We had three eggs from a het pied X het pied breeding (some of you may remember Tom helping us figure out the odds of getting one pied from these three eggs) and they finally decided to come out today! We got 1.1 pieds and 1.0 pos het pied! Not bad at all! Maybe Tom can figure out what our odds were for that! Anyway, the first pic was a quick one I took of them right out of the egg, and the other two pics are of the female a few hours later. Thanks for looking, and a special thanks to John at Harbor Reptiles for selling us some great hets!!!

Great Odds!
Ready to buy all you produce when you start selling wholesale.

I'll be the broker. I mean I will buy them outright and pay you upfront for them.

Wow... Congratulations! What odds!! If I can have those odds.....

I've got a clutch of six just entering their last week of incubation, and the anticipation is just getting unbearable the closer it gets. But I'll be excited if I get two. Hopefully I'll be in your shoes a week from now. Once again, congrats!

Very exciting! I for sure know how you are feeling right now!!! It drove me NUTS that the eggs came so late. All our other clutches had hatched by the time our het pied girl decided to lay. Then there was the 50 days of waiting to see what it was!!! Man the anticipation just about did me in! I am SO glad they are out and doing well. And, it is for sure a nice bonus that two of them are pieds!!! Anyway, good luck, and for sure post pics when they come out!
