knoblochi hatchlings

peter54 Jul 10, 2008 05:41 PM

All 4 eggs hatched out nicely after 90 days incubation time.
Here's number two emerging

and here's number two out

Here's the last one out, both of these had the nice arrowhead marking on their head.

I think they are rather big for knoblochi hatchlings

Between you and Shannon Brown (she's got some real nice stuf.....lol) the knoblochi are beginning to make some comeback. Exquisite baby -- please do show the rest.

Well, two had the complete arrowhead marking and the other two hatchlings look like this one, pic showing the 1st. For some reason I have no pic on the 3rd one and it's in shed right now, so I'll wait and post later.

Man, I really like the head markings.Did all 4 of them have the arrowheads?
What do the parents look like?

Thanks

Female is born here in Sweden, I don't have any records of her parent couple, she looks like this:

The male is bred by Mattias Rechter, Germany back in 2004. This snake is 3rd generation after a breeding couple from Steve and Karen Osborne. I'll try to find a pic showing the male.

I found this very old pic of the male knoblochi.

Hi Peter

I was wondering what temps did you use for the duration of the 90 day incubation period. Thanks.
