This morning we discovered our first clutch of the year! 6 eggs!
They could be Pieds! Breeding was 100 % Het Pied male to 66 % Het Pied female.

Thanks

You used ultrasound to trigger breeding? Or is this one of those ancient Chinese secrets that you can't tell?

I started a little early myself this year ... Before I moved I had racks all over the place and not in a controlled temp room ... So when the weather changed here in VA of couse everything decided that they were going to stop feeding ... I went ahead and started futher cooling and breeding ... I now have 10 cluthes on the way with the first clutch due to lay in appox 2 weeks ... Oh and I dont have an ultrasound ... Manual Palpation ... Gotta love it ...

For the last few years I've been gradually shifting my cornsnakes winter cycle so that they breed earlier and it's been working out great. I was wondering if it could be done with the balls and from what you're saying it can be done. Kewl!
