    Thumbs up Sneak peek @ my first pippers...

    I'll post photos of the whole clutch once they're out, but just wanted to share this sneak peek... the first pipper (6-egg clutch) is halfway out now, and another little one is sticking his/her nose out. Soooooo freakin' cute!

    This guy/girl is staying with me, regardless of gender... gotta keep your first baby, right?


    I'm digging the neck stripe!




    And this one's been peeking in & out since last night


    Check out the white belly on that bottom right egg... whaddya think it is?

    Thanks! Don't I wish it was a pied... it's nothing fancy, though. Oh, and the first little guy is almost completely out now!

    Btw, I'm not even sure what that white-bellied snake is yet, since she was with multiple males... but none of them were pieds, unfortunately, and she's just a plain 'ol normal.

    First one is out, and weighing in at a healthy 65g! Looks like a female too, but I'm not 100% confident in my popping abilities yet.

    Re: Sneak peek @ my first pippers...

    Very pretty and congratulations!

    I can't wait to hatch my first clutch myself. I'm hoping for next year and just like you said, no matter what it is, I plan on keeping the first one out. Just because it is the first one out EVER!!.

    What were the males you paired her with?

    Regardless, congratulations again.

    Thanks! And yes, I think it's a requirement to keep your first one to hatch. Luckily it seems as though she's a girl, and a nice looking one at that - so I'll be happy to have her in my collection.

    The mom was paired with both a pastel & Mojave... now that the "mystery egg" is showing more color, I'm pretty darned sure it's a Mojave! The other tip-off is that normal's patterning, which reminds me a LOT of my Mojo (especially the neck stripe). Here's another shot of the morph egg:

    Please be a girl... please be a girl.

    And here are the two potential daddies... I think it's kinda obvious now, but I'm not counting my mojos before they hatch.
