Congrats and good luck on your eggs John! Turns out you didn't need to use my male after all!lol. Hope mine will be ready this coming year. Mine are about the same size now as yours was (27".
I will try and get some recent pics up soon before I start cooling them down. My pair (90% sure lol) was the very last pair that Chuck Glut from SGR produced and was actually a hold back pair that he kept for the first 2 years. I acquired them from him at the age of 2 and will be 4 yrs old this feb. I have had good success with eastern indigos and hope it rolls over for me with these guys. Want to add some more beadeds and possible gilas soon.
